[U-Boot-Users] u-boot on floppy from x86

Greetings!

I read that u-boot can be installed on a floppy and
can be booted from the floppy. Is it possible on an
x86 (Intel PII) system?

I downloaded u-boot-1.1.1. The README says that u-boot
can be used for i386 CPUs and architecture. But, the
Makefile has only one entry for i386 for AMD SC520
CDP. I need to do "make <arch>_config" first and not
sure which one I should do for an x86 target system.

My main objective is to write my own commands in the
u-boot monitor source program, and test it when u-boot
boots the system.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Shaks
