I don't know where to get it from the net, althogh it should be 
on sunsite and others, but try rawrite2.exe

I had the same problem, and using an exe helped a lot.

as I have used it for a similar purpose.)

p.s. if you can't find it on sunsite you can get it from
ftp.debian.org I think it is in the ezimages directory.
