Hi Willy,

Insert the Win98 CD into a Windows machine with a working CD drive, and on
it run, from the Win98 CD - tools\mtsutil\fat32ebd\fat32ebd.exe.
This will make a bootable startup floppy with generic CD support to
use with the drive on your machine to access the CD and Setup windows.
Or go to:BootDisk.com http://www.bootdisk.com/
