Need bootable MS DOS for CD or thumb drive

I'm looking for a bootable cd or thumb drive (image I guess) that I can load directly from bootup. New machine at work will not recognize my compact flash. But that's a whole other issue.

The compact flash I need I think I'm getting in the morning. It's an 8GB fixed disk. If that's bootable too, that would be great. We're trying to load XP Pro SP2 , not XP embedded, to this Compact Flash, no luck with the "removable" CF's. They say it must be fixed disk format. It's being overnighted for Friday morning receiving at work.

But really need a link to the MS DOS Win98 compatible.

Any help would be hugely appreciated.
 
Didn't need the MSDOS bootable, but did get the CF card to install XP Pro.

BTW if anyone needs to do this get an INDUSTRIAL CF card (must be fixed disk readable). They are expensive. The one I got is a Transcend 8GB Industrial for $300 (company pays for them what do I care? :) They are for our work though. Works great if anyone needs to use this kind of drive on a laptop, etc.
 
yeah, that's where I got it from, but turns out this time I don't need it. Thanks.
