Drive Image 5 Boot Disks

OK, I just got this new dell notebook with a modular drive bay, so I cant use the CD & floppy drive at the same time. Drive image only makes bootable floppies but I want to burn the image to CD and cant switch them out during the process. Heres the issue. I need a Drive Image CD boot disk but cant figure out how to do it. Drive Image makes 2 Floppy Disks, 1 boot disk and 1 app disk. Problem is they both have autoexec.bat files, which appear to be different for some reason??? so if i try to burn both floppies to a bootable cd it overwrites 1 set of files and wont work. Any 1 here know how to overcome this. I guess i could make 2 bootable CD's, 1 for each floppy but surely there is a way around this im missing. Thanks for any help.

Can you put the floppy drive in the battery bay?

No, it's on the other side of the unit so it's a mirror image and wont fit. Dell do have a floppy that will fit but it's extra $.
