boot floppy to facilitate boot from IDE CDROM on classic Pentium

I have an old Dell laptop Pentium 150Mhz XPiCD without BIOS
support for booting from CDROM, but there are several boot
Utility Linux Boot CD's I would like to run on this box from
time to time.  Is there a premade boot floppy to facilitate
this or does that even make sense?  i.e., appartently there
is more to it than boot=/dev/hdc at the lilo prompt and
would such a boot floppy have to be custom made for each
LiveCD Utility?
