DOS Boot disk

I am building a new machine, with no CD ROM. I need to make a disk that will boot me to DOS, with Network Drivers, so I can access a CD ROM through a network. I copied the IO.SYS, MSDOS.SYS & Command.com files to a disk, but know there are others I need. I want this to go on a system with Windows 98
