Joseph,
 
    Have you considered dual booting that Win 2k box?  Is there a reason why you haven't tried this already?  If it will help you out, you can just download the diskette images of the current pocket linux project, boot off of them and work with it that way.

I have attempted to build pocket linux on cygwin (windows 2000) but 
without much success mainly because I cannot get some utilities like 
mke2fs to compile under cygwin.

Is there anyone out there using cygwin without any trouble?

I use cygwin because I cannot install linux on my machine, at least not 
till June 30!

Joseph
