How can I have commands executed when I start BasicLinux with the BOOT.BAT 
(see below) from my Win98 computer?

[I was thinking to have it ready to connect to my modem without doing the 
pppsetup or whatever]

loadlin bzimage vga=ask kbd-reset root=/dev/ram rw initrd=baslinux.gz

Also, isn't there supposed to be some business about running as a user 
rather than root, so that programs won't crash the computer?
