The driver floppy images are 512 bytes of 'junk' then a chunk of the
drivers.tgz file.

So, to get drivers.tgz back, try this lot:

dd if=drv14-1.bin of=d1 bs=512 skip=1
dd if=drv14-2.bin of=d2 bs=512 skip=1
dd if=drv14-3.bin of=d3 bs=512 skip=1
dd if=drv14-4.bin of=d4 bs=512 skip=1
dd if=drv14-5.bin of=d5 bs=512 skip=1

cat d1 d2 d3 d4 d5 > drivers.tgz


Let us know how that goes.
