Use your install disk in the rescue mode and use mkbootdisk to create it.
Note there is also an option to write it to a CD-ROM. Remember to put the CD drive in your boot
check sequence from the BIOS. Newer AMI bios versions skip an empty or non-boot disk in the drive
almost instantly as opposed to the old ones that took 30 seconds or so.
