[syslinux] Bootable 2.88MB floppy image

[fetak at comcast.net]

I would like to be able to create a 2.88MB bootable floppy image to hold the kernel and initrd -- will be used for automated install.  In various newsgroups there have been many posting attempting to describe how to achieve this, but none of them is complete.  

Can syslinux be used to achieve this?

What about memdisk?

Thank you in advance.
