One DOS program that can do this is "RAWRITE.EXE". One place that can
be found is in the install directory of the Slackware Linux
distribution, for example at:
Tsk. The one and only place NetBSD-fans get RAWRITE.EXE is from
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-1.2.1/i386/utils/rawrite.exe
C source code and doc file are in the same directory.
If your favourite mirror site doesn't carry 1.2.1 yet, try 1.2, 1.1,
or 1.0. :-)
