Loadlin works by loading a copy of the Linux kernel into RAM and then
transferring control to it.  It needs a copy of the kernel to work
with.

Did you copy your kernel to the c: drive and name it "linux"?
Otherwise it won't work.

Your kernel might be named "vmlinuz" or "zImage" or "bzImage".  It
depends.
