Richard, I use EZGen regularly on 128meg and smaller drives/VHDs with no problems.
Kwikgen has a more robust kernel swapping utility, but to me, EZGen is the quickest for just swapping modules in and out of the bootfile.

Thanks to all who answered my question. I found a PDF copy of the EXGen
doc on my... are you ready for this?... Jaz drive. Read it and thought
this seems easy enough, but looking at the dates made me nervous about
using it on Nitros. If I understand the answers correctly, it will work
as long as the sectors are only one cluster. Any other size and I in a
cluster f**k 8-)
