If this were me, and I am no expert, but I would disable the win98 drive 
(ie. unplug the IDE cable and power cable from the back of the drive.), 
reboot your system, go into your bios and set the boot priority to 
CD-ROM, put your win 98 CD in the drive, and let the win98 cd do it's 
magic.  You may have to run fdisk to delete any existing partitions and 
to create a new primary.  Win98 will complain during the installation if 
there is a partition problem, usually so just look out for a message.  I 
hope that helps!
