Booting DOS (at least as far as your CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files)
and using loadlin to load the kernel image off your DOS partition is
another alternative.  (loadlin.exe and lodlin16.tgz are available in
the /dosutils directory of your RedHat CD-ROM.)

Freshmeat tells me someone has even written a Windows GUI configuration tool
for loadlin, though I've not tried it:
