Yes, just build a boot disk like normal; that is, compile the kernel like you may have done by new and place it on a disk formatted and set up for booting. Then mark this to load a second floppy which would contain your various utilities needed for a rescue disk set. I would look at the bootdisk-howto for all the gorry details. It goes into detail as to what to put on the bootdisk to make it work and how to create a rootdisk like the distro folks do. You could even come up with multiple utility disks for other rescue operations.
