That could be a job for you. It's not to difficult to prepare such a
cdrom (could even be a floppy). Get some DOS bootable diskette (will
work with ms-dos from win9x), use the "menu" structure and the dos
executable file format that rom-o-matic provides...

Right from the head, start like this (read test/control/read docs
first) (look onto the w95 boot disk for example)

---<config.sys
[menu]
menuitem=RTL8139,RTL-8139 network board
menuitem=RHINE,Via-Rhine network board
[common]
--->

---<autoexec.bat
if %MENU"==RTL8139" goto RTL8139
if %MENU"==RHINE" goto RHINE
exit
:RTL8139
eb-r8139.com
exit
:RHINE
eb-rhine.com
exit
--->

If you have a working floppy like that, you could use linux tools to
make a el-torito-bootable-cdrom from it, but even Windows software can
do that, "Nero" did for me without complaint some time ago.

Best regards,
