Dos Boot disk for zip drive problem

I use zip 100 drives as a backup boot device for my point of sale systems.
I create a dos boot zip disk by using the dos sys command. This works fine
on the old iomega zip 100 cartridges. When I use the sys command on the
newer Iomega or Fuji cartridges (they have a red inverted triangle on the label)
it places the system files on the disk but the cartridges won't boot.
I can't see any physical differences between the cartridges other than the label.
I tried to talk to Iomega but all they would say is "We don't support the boot function."
Does anyone have any ideas on what has changed?

Thanks,
