of course. silly me. this should read:
#! /bin/sh
# change this to your cd drive dev
cd_dev=/dev/hdc
# boot size in 2kB-blocks
boot_size=720
dd if=$cd_dev bs=2048 count=1 skip=17 >sect
position=`hexdump -n 4 -s 0x47 -e '"%u"' sect`
dd if=$cd_dev bs=2048 count=1 skip=$position >sect
position=`hexdump -n 4 -s 0x28 -e '"%u"' sect`
dd if=$cd_dev bs=2048 count=$boot_size skip=$position >boot_image
