You need the 3 files below on your floppy (if you did not know that) which will allow you to boot to an installed OS in the event of a problem:-
1. Boot.ini
2. NTLDR
3. NTDETECT.COM
Following the links in this thread, it looks like the other "boot disks" will permit you to install the XP operating system.
Since I have not tried these "boot disks" I ready to be shown to be wrong in my understanding without necessarily starting a flame war.
