Converting Windows 95 to floppy format

I have an old Texas Instruments Extensa 515 laptop that was giving to me a long time ago. It has been gathering dust and I have decided to put it back into use, mainly for fun. I have windows 95 and 98, but the laptop originally had win95 on it but no longer does. I used to have a method for interfacing the HD to a desktop pc to install win 98 and discovered the laptop could barely handle it. I have since lost this capability and since the laptop only has a floppy drive, I have no way of installing my win 95 or 98SE OS to it. Long ago, I heard of a way to convert your CDrom to a set of like 40 floppies for such installations. (I am too poor to buy floppy version, which I had too by the way, and one floppy was KIA, killed that method) So my question is, how do I convert the cd version of win9x to floppy only installation? I am currently running Vista, XP, and Win2k for my desktop pc's, so I have the resources to complete the task, just need instructions, thanks.
