I had a program on my FTP server that patched a DOS 5+ boot sector for you, using Mike's process, however it had a bug (nothing destructive) so I removed it. I put it back for you: Use an anonymous FTP client like filezilla to go to ftp.oldskool.org and cd to /pub/misc/Software/PCjr/ and download "PATCHDOS.EXE" and see if it works for you.

Well, the instructions are probably about twice as long as they should be because I was very explicit, provided examples, and explained how to cross check the results. You should be able to do it.
Distributing DOS diskettes is kind of a copyright violation. It's a low risk, but I'd rather not deal with it so I don't post images like that on the site.
