I am trying to get the files kern.flp on a floppy and
mfsroot.ftp on another.  

I am using a windows 98 box to download the files.  

I read 

These images are not DOS files. You cannot simply copy
them to a DOS or UFS floppy as regular files, you need
to ``image'' copy them to the floppy with fdimage.exe
under DOS (see the tools directory on your CDROM or
FreeBSD FTP mirror) or the dd(1) command in UNIX.

For example, to create the kernel floppy image from
DOS, you'd do something like this:

     C> fdimage kern.flp a:

I try it and i get 

C:\>fdimage kern.flp a:
'fdimage' is not recognized as an internal or external
command,
operable program or batch file.
 
What am i doing wrong here?

Thanks for the help.
