These are linux rescue floppies for XFS, JFS, ext2/3 and reiserfs.

Copy the images to floppies by entering
' cat XFS-Boot_LVM_dec03-2.4.22.img > /dev/fd0 ' and so on.

The XFS-Boot_LVM_dec03-2.4.22.img contains a 2.4.22 kernel with support
for Adaptec 2400A, LVM and LVM2/EVMS

The  XFS-Root_sep03.img contains BusyBox 1.0pre3, xfs_repair, e2fsck, fdisk and others.

The XFS-Extra_LVM_dec03-2.4.22.img contains additional modules supporting 3com, SMC and Tulip
cards, Adaptec 1542, the NCR53C8XX family and Tekram DC390.
It also contains LVM and additional ext2/3, reiserfs and XFS commands.
To use them, issue 'enable_extras' and follow the instructions.

If you want to inspect the content of the images you'll have to have
support for the loopback interface. If so, you can issue :
  mount -o loop XFS-Boot_LVM_dec03-2.4.22.img /mnt
  mkdir /mnt2 && zcat XFS-Root_sep03.img > RootFile && mount -o loop RootFile /mnt2
  mkdir /mnt3 && tar -xzf XFS-Extra_LVM_dec03-2.4.22.img -C /mnt3

The creation of these files were inspired by an article by Todd Sundsted
called "Lightweight Linux" and the "original" and discontinued (?)
XFS rescue disks by Kelly Eicher.
