loadlin: a loader (running under DOS) for LINUX kernel images

 LOADLIN-1.6 is highly adaptable to different DOS configurations, and now
 has very few loading restrictions. It makes use of extended memory and
 also can load big kernels (bzImages) and ramdisk images (initrd)
 directly high.
 .
 LOADLIN also can load out of Virtual-86 mode (which is normal when
 using EMS drivers) if a VCPI server is present.
 .
 The loadlin package also includes the freeramdisk program, which can
 return memory to the system when a ramdisk is no longer needed.
