I believe he's using the "install.bat" file that has a line like "loadlin linux /dev/ram initrd=root.bin". Bala, is this correct? Make sure you're not at the C:\ prompt and entering "C:\Debian\Install"; you need to actually be in the C:\debian directory. Also, try entering the line manually instead of running "install.bat". Also, I've seen something similar to this when trying to run install.bat after exitting Win95 with the "Start/Shutdown/Restart in MS-DOS Mode" option. Try rebooting the PC and when you see "Starting Windows 95", press the F8 key and then select "Safe Mode Command Prompt Only". Then switch to the C:\Debian directory and run "install.bat".
