Boot problem

Ciao !
I have discovered mulinux a couple of months ago and it's wonderful, in
particular because I'm new to linux and I want to experiment without panic...
I have installed v7r8 in a ext2 partition and it works well (except for
some configuration problems... in my head !), but my question is about
loading it on a laptop. A friend of mine has a IBM thinkpad 340,
 a 486 with 3.7 Mb ram (!):
If I try to load from floppy it stops and says:

        kernel panic: VFS: unable to mount root fs on 02:3c.

Zipping an UMSDOS installation and copying it on HD it's the same:

        kernel panic: VFS: unable to mount root fs on 03:01.

Is there anything I can do (enter commands at "boot:" prompt...)??
(used v7r6 and 7r8)

Thanks!
... hoping my "englian" (or "italish") is comprehensible...
