A Partition Magic Floppy???

Does anyone know of a way to make a bootable Partition Magic floppy? I'd like to be able to run P Magic from the floppy for partitioning, etc. on the fly. Last year, someone on this site sent me a super-usable bootable Ghost floppy for Windows 98. I'd like to see if there's a W98 Partition Magic equivalent.

If you have PM then it has the option to make one of these. They don't have all the bells and whistles, but everything you need on the floppy. wcr3d
