Well, 
   I was able to get minimal to load after replacing
every execution of lilo in pwl_target_load with
doc-lilo ( from Msys driver ). The doc configuration
took place with no problem , I even saw the penguin.
Great!
   I don't know what was wrong with the SYSLINUX
configuration but I will keep my eyes peeled for an
answer.
   Somebody had mentioned creating a FAQ . While I am
no document writer , I could probably put together
alot of questions with relevant answers from the email
archive. I'd rather not do this without the support of
the list so please respond on this note.

Thanks 
Tim
