Hi Michele!
Really good news.
Here is my rawrite2 utility. I have writen it from scratch. It allow writing
images of any floppy type (1.44MB, 1722KB, 1804, ...), so makes really easy
for a DOS user to write all mulinux images to floppy (provided the floppy has
the right format). Under DOS it needs the fdread or 2m utilities (since it uses
the BIOS to disk access), but under win95 you are able to write 1722KB floppies
without any of this utilities (win95 supports fdformat 1722KB).
Please, have a look on it.
A copy of the fdformat and 2m packages are available from my homepage
