It depends a lot on how the software on the floppy works. As a general
approach, I'd try this:

- Get WinImage (30 day evaluation) from http://www.winimage.com/.
- Read the first, bootable floppy into WinImage.
- Change the format of the image to 2.88MB.
- Add the files from the second floppy to the image.
- Save the image to a file.
- Use that image file in your CD recording application.
