I have Warp CD installation disk, in the box there are floppys to
boot from CD, and there are documentation to create boot floppy
yourself. But I have a notebook with DVD player, no floppy. I tried
to use an USB disk as the boot floppy (from another PC I formatted
as DOS bootable, after that I tried to copy all files from the OS2
boot floppy.
But it doesn't work. Is there any way to use USB flash disck as
floppy? (install CD should recognize that unit as their installation disquettes)
Or Is there any other way?

Check out what ArcaOS CDs do. I think they boot using some of the aforementioned SYSLinux / ISOLinux tricks.
