I didn't get far.

I emptied  C:\baslin, and unzipped into it the files in bl3-32.zip

And I copied into C:\baslin  BZIMAGE.USB    ( 634,873  11-14-05 )

And booted with 
loadlin c:\baslin\BZIMAGE.USB root=/dev/hda8 rw

It hangs after detecting the USB drive.

This used to work.

What's wrong - is my copy of David's 2.4 kernel defective?

Please remind me how to make BasicLinux work with USB storage.
Can it work with loop BL, or only with hard drive BL?

Thanks,
Sheldon
