How much RAM on that machine?

That is done by a DOS batch file (nothing to do with
Linux).  It's not very complicated:
---------------------------------
copy loadlin.exe a: 
copy zimage a: 
copy part1 a: 
echo Insert  disk 2  in  drive A:  
pause
copy part2 a: 
---------------------------------

The most likely source of your problem is bad media.
Or perhaps you are running make_fd.bat from a directory
with a lot of junk in it.

Cheers,
Steven
