You need to add baselib.tgz and term.tgz to both your pkglist file and the
d:\trinux -- the boot script looks for baselib.tgz in the trinux directory
and if it doesn't find it it stops loading which is I think what you were
seeing.

I updated the documentation to provide more info on what packages are
needed.
