"mu" itself is in the mulinux.tgz archive. You can mount the partition from
mulinux and use "mu" from muLinux itself.
The problem: if you unpacked in vfat, "mu" do not work, because UNIX use
something like symlinks etc, not supported in vfat.

If you have a spare partition in your system, create an EXT2FS filesystem
on it:
# mkfs.ext2 /dev/hdb8
# mount /dev/hdb8 /mnt
Assuming your vfat mounted on /c, you can copy with:
# cp -a /c/mulinux /mnt
(I assume "mulinux" as temporary installing directory on WIndows).
A this point, cd /mnt/mulinux and use "mu" to rebuild muLinux and
customize it.
