Has anybody made a successful boot image from a fat16 partition for use with dosemu 1.99

I have the partition mounted as /dosc but that drive is going away, so need to virtualize to a file image.

Tried
dd if=/dev/hda1 of=/hdimage etc... mkfatimage16 -k32768 -f hdimage -b /dosc /dosc

tried dd of the mbr to a separate file in combination with the above and none work???

Thanks in advance,
TonyB
