Hi,
this is quite easy. I tell you how I did it many times :
Right after format C: I booted from a floppy disk and made a folder "Install" on drive C:
In that folder I copied all files that were on the Win98 CD in the "Win98" folder.
Then switch into C:\install and type "Setup" without brackets.
That´s all. Just be sure to have a serial number ready, Win98 asks for it some time later...
