Installing to HD should not be difficult.  
cp -a 
edit /etc/fstab
edit BOOT.BAT

for HD (a version that includes extra stuff).

How is Linux supposed to figure out from which DOS directory
loadlin.exe was executed?   Perhaps I should specify a
compulsory DOS directory to use?  For example:  C:\BASLIN

BL1 used to include such instructions.  I removed them because
inexperienced users kept getting into trouble with them.
