Hi guys, sorry for the delay in getting back to you, had some other stuff to deal with, but now back to sort out my PC.
I tried the method of installing grub to the floppy and that worked fine, though I did have some problems in doing it.
When I first tried it, I typed "grub-install /dev/fd0" and got an error saying;

/dev/fd0 does not have any corresponding BIOS drive.

A quick Google revealed that there was a missing entry for fd0 in /boot/grub/device.map. It only contained hd0, so after adding it (and trying to remember the commands for using VIM) I re-ran grub-install and it worked fine.
Now I can just pop the floppy in the drive and boot into FC6.
Though I have not tried the method of using mkbootdisk, I have confirmed that it does reside in /sbin as blackhole54 suggested. I think I may be missing a path reference though because when I just type mkbootdisk from the root prompt it tells me that it doesn't exist.
Thank you both for your assistance. Now I just need to sort out my XP drive :-)
Richard.
