There is an app in the /tools directory on one of the CD's called fdimage that works fine, I made my boot disks under NT with it. As for the FTP install, once you get the kernel and mfs floppies loaded, you simply supply an ethernet connection, specify a default gateway and select an FTP server near you ... once again, this is how I installed my machine ... but this is pretty much redundant since you bought the CDs.
