ok, I ve found a solution with the package ms-sys:
so, here is the operation
-first create an image with 2.88M size
dd if=/dev/zero of=file.img bs=1024 count=2880
-secondly, associate this file with a loop device
losetup /dev/loop0 file.img
- format the file
mkdosfs /dev/loop0
- make the file bootable
ms-sys /dev/loop0
- mount the file
mount -o loop -t vfat /dev/loop0 /temp
- copy whatever we want in the file
cp * /temp
- umount temp
