Are you talking about booting from a floppy disk?
I was talking about booting from the hard drive. I tried booting from a
floppy, but had other problems. I figured I would focus on the hard
drive.

I experienced the same problem, its a problem in the boot.bat file, its
loading /dev/loop0, and I would've assumed it should be hda1, except its
booted in a RAM disk, so I'm inexperienced with RAM Disk's in Linux...if
you could extract the files from FS.IMG & INITRD into that directory,
rename it from baslin to LINUX, it might work, however I haven't tried
it, I tend to use ZipSlack & BigSlack...
