[syslinux] Memdisk/floppy image question

[ganapathy murali krishnan]

I created another one exactly the same size, and used the information 
gives by mkdosfs this time. The same C/H/S combination worked. It might 
be useful to have mkfloppyimage script, just like mkdiskimage. So people 
like me don't do stupid things (like forgetting the parameters).
