How to run it with WindowsXP

1. Create a folder named slax in your driver C:
2. Copy the CD contents to the folder,
3. Create a file: menu.lst on C driver (C:/menu.lst); copy and paste the following

timeout 0
default 0
title Linux For Buddhist Studies
kernel /slax/boot/vmlinuz ramdisk_size=6666 root=/dev/ram0 rw autoexec=xconf;telinit~4 changes=/slax/  slax from=/dev/hda1/slax/
initrd /slax/boot/initrd.gz
boot

NOTE: "hda" is for my hard disk, sometimes it may be "sda".
4. download grldr (http://www.thanhsiang.org/faqing/files/grldr) to C:/
5. add
c:\grldr="GRUB"
to c:\boot.ini

Please share the lzm module without the whole slax

I've slax already, and I don't want to download it again. Please, make the additional module (lzm) to be downloadable.
