Thanks!  That might be just what I need, and led me to
http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/mini/Loadlin+Win95-98-ME.html
That document assumes linux is already installed, but maybe
it can work for an installer kernel as well.

If I get this working, I'll document it and try to get it
linked from linux-laptops.org.
