Yes.  It appears it cannot find fs.img.  Are you sure
you put it in C:\BASLIN ?   Or perhaps fs.img is corrupted?

Theoretically yes.  Practically no.  
fs.img is not copied to HD.  
The install-to-hd routine is more complicated than that.

Yes.  DISK1.IMG is a floppy image (including lilo and kernel).  
There is no simple way to extract files from that image.
DISK2.TGZ is different -- it is an ordinary gzipped tar 
archive.  It is easy to extract files from that one.

No, you need to boot the floppies before you can install
from that version.
