Hi -
I actually had this same problem this weekend trying to install from the "Easy
Guide". All I did was uncompress gnumach.gz. Then, the filename in the "kernel="
command is correct. I'd think that you could also specify "gnumach.gz" in the
"kernel=" command, although I didn't try that.
good luck!
