FWIW, I went ahead and tried the loadlin deal from the DOS config.sys
multi-boot and it worked flawlessly. I used the defaults from the
manual.txt as examples, and copied my linux kernel from my floppy boot
diskette for the boot image. The line is:
shell=c:\loadlin\loadlin.exe c:\loadlin\linux

There is a mini FAQ on this.. basically, to boot linux from NT's boot
leader you need to do the following:
1) dd if=/dev/hda3 of=bootsect.lnx /bs=512 count=1
(assuming your linux root partition is bootable and /dev/hda3)
2) copy bootsect.lnx to C:\bootsect.lnx
3) add 'C:\bootsect.lnx =
