I am making an operative system with a bootloader, kernel and programs. I need to make a bootable floppy and mount it on a directory for copying the bootloader, kernel and programs to and then running it in qemu.
I know that I cannot use mkdosfs because I heard it can not make a BOOTABLE floppy.
It needs to be a .flp file and NOT a .img file.

Please help me, I am in a big strugle because I can not test my kernel and programs
without a bootable .flp file.
