Question using Norton Rescue on Zip Disk

I used to always use floppies for rescue disks, which always worked fine.
Easy to boot and use right away.

Now I have tried using a zip disk instead, which requires you to use one
floppy.

Problem is ... when I try to boot from the floppy, I can't get the computer to
recognize the zip drive.

Any suggestions on what I need to do to access the zip rescue files without
having to start up Windows. (Using Win98SE).

Thanks in advance!

I remain respectful and a little bit hongry,
X

The PC would be dependent upon the motherboard BIOS to boot from a ZIP drive. The ZIP drive
would have to be SCSI, IDE or USB.
