Im trying to run a program that is designed to run in pure dos (real mode). The program is Loadlin, a utility to dual-boot Linux from a DOS/Win9x machine. Is there a way to add a startup menu so I could choose whether to boot DOS or WinME?

Why don't you use a bootmanager? it's far easier. Try 'liloconfig' or 'lilocfg' (can't remember exactly) in Linux and it will run the setup for LiLO (linux loader). This is a pretty decent bootmanager. If you have bootquest, you can also use this one, it's even easier to use, and can be managed from in windows.
