HI Greg,

I'm using windows ME and have no DOS mode as a result.  I did make a startup
disk, from the control panel and went to it's autoexec.bat file and added
the command to call the c:\linux\linux.bat file, but still no good.

What I think could be happening to you is that the kernel
maybe looking for a parallel port zip drive.
Did you try just taking the kernel not the whole bootdisk image,
and booting it with loadlin?
You can create a startup dos disk, and stick loadlin on that.
