Sorry, I wasn't quite specific enough. When BL3 boots,
it looks for the loop file on /dev/hda1. That's the
primary master IDE drive. It looks for a top directory
named baslin. If the drive has a DOS format, the case
of the directory doesn't matter, so baslin/BASLIN is not
a problem. Was your C: drive formated from MSDOS, DrDOS,
Windows, or something else?

When you execute boot.bat, what exactly happens? Is there
any output? Does anything happen at all?

Which unzipper did you use to unzip bl3-40.zip? What files
did you get and what size are they? Did you edit or change
anything before executing boot.bat?

Hopefully, one of these things will point to the problem.

Cheers,
Steven
