1206433+220241 = 1426674, onto a 3.5" floppy disk fit 1474560 bytes,
space left = 47886 bytes, looks a bit like that is not enough upon
gzip'ping the created initrd image

I think mkinitrd of Red Hat Linux 9 is smarter and copies the existing
initrd onto the bootdisk.

Option --iso: mkbootdisk --device boot.iso --iso 2.4.18-14smp

Then burn the ISO image to CD.
