This sounds like a "Startup Menu" (or whatever the DrDOS equivalent 
is called).  You use menuitem in the config.sys to specify different
configuration options.  You then get a choice when the system boots.

It all depends on what you want to happen.  If you want Linux to boot
automatically, you can stick the 'cd BasLin' and 'Linux' at the bottom
of your autoexec.bat.  To give yourself a choice, you can put 'pause'
ahead of this (to allow time for a CTRL-C).  Or you could do something
fancier with 'choice'.

Alternately, you could write a batch file called 'bl':
----------
cd \BasLin
Linux
----------
and put it in your path.  Then a simple 'bl' anywhere will start Linux.

Gee, it's been a long time since I did this DOS stuff.  
Brings back memories.

Cheers,
Steven
