| Download this and dump it onto a floppy. If you have a linux box available, just dd to /dev/fd0, otherwise track down a copy of rawrite.exe for Windows. It'll give you a Win98 boot floppy which will be able to fdisk, format, and sys the drive. It also has CD drivers, so you can drop in a Win98 CD to do your installation. My personal recommendation is to sys the C drive from the floppy as well as formatting, then make a win98 dir on the C drive and copy over the contents of the win98 directory of the Win98 install CD. Then reboot from the newly formatted C drive, change to the Win98 directory, and run setup. By doing it this way, the install goes much faster, plus all the files from the CD are on the C drive, so windows never prompts for the install CD later on. |
