Well, that's your problem; you're referring to the kernel (linux.bin)
without specifying a path.
If you move it into your command path, you need to specify a full path
to the kernel to make it work. E.g., if the kernel can be found in
"c:\linux", make the command line look like
amiboot-5.6 -k c:\linux\linux.bin root=/dev/hdb1 ro
That should do it.
