No, that won't work, the CDROM drivers are on the boot disk. Win98 was not designed to be bootable from the cd, although I do have a few that were made bootable. You can down load the disk contents online, just google it. Also windows will 'NOT' format over ext2 or ext3. You must use either a utility that erases the existing partition/s or use Linux to create the fat. Once this is done, win98 will do just fine.
