Yes. All of these distributions -- incl. the Bootdisk
floppy version -- are available from the DFSEE
download page. It's just a matter of what you want at
the time. When a new release comes out, I usually
grab all of them: the multi-platform Zip archive for
running the full program from the hard drive (although
I don't do things like imaging partitions that way),
the bootable CD, and -- just in case -- the floppy
Bootdisk "lite" version. The latter two have some
assembly required. In the case of the floppy, I add
the DOS USB drivers. The ISO image of the CD needs
registration + addition of the USB stuff. For the
boot floppy, you add your current registration key
file to the floppy; the CD has another procedure for
adding this to the ISO, prior to burning. Ditto the
USB drivers. I do the burning with RSJ. Jan has good
instructions for all of this. Nothing too
complicated. Once you've gone through the recipe a
couple times, it becomes rote the next time around.
