Lpalink for Windows - Laplink for DOS
Unfortunately,
I had to replace the packard bell's 5.25 drive since it is dead and pretty corroded inside. This means I had to use the one form the windows 98 machine. This means I can no longer use the 98 machine to put images onto 5.25 discs.
However, I do have a USB to serial adapater, and a null-modem serial cable, and a DOS program for writing disk images.
I am aware that there is laplink for DOS, so I will put that on the Pack-Mate III, however I'd probably use the latest version of laplink for Windows on my Windows 7 machine.
However would Laplink for Windows and Laplink for dos communciate with each other fine?
Or should I make a VM with DOS and use laplink for DOS on my modern machine as well?

Whatever, better than nothing.
