Subject: getting kermit to work

I have an Osborne Executive computer that I would like to use as a spare 
terminal. I would like to use kermit, since it is free and it is on all
of my other machines.  I have tried to get it running by transfering the .hex
files from Columbia to the Osborne via my IBM, using a program called media
master to get the Osborne to read the IBM disks.  I got the program called 
mload running (apparently) from the hex file and used it to assemble the 
two pieces of Kermit (the system independent and the system specific files)
Unfortunatly, Kermit hangs when I attempt to connect (enter terminal mode), but
operates normally in other respects.  Does anyone have any idea what I might 
be doing wrong?  Is there some special configuring I need to do?  

Failing that, does anyone know of an easier way to get Kermit running on
my machine?  

Thanks.
