Take a look at msdos.sys - do *not* remove any of the X's at the end.
What message do you get? do you get a dos prompt? what are the attributes
of msdos.sys, and io.sys?

You're the same guy who said you couldn't install or *boot* from usb windows
xp right?

I don't know about the mini Hirens, but I use the Hiren's CD boot
disk. To find the program your looking for, you can CD to the ram disk
and copy the program to the ram drive, or open each .Cab file, the
.Cab name is a hint as to the program.

To make a bootable Win98 bootdisk on a USB pen drive, this is how I do
it.

Download  this HP utility, it will make the memory stick bootable.
This link changes all the time I found it here:
http://files.filefront.com/SP27213exe/;5953912;/fileinfo.html 
Don't trust that, google: SP27213.exe
-works on all types of Pen Drives not just HP.


Download Win98SE bootdisk (gives CD support)
http://bootdisk.com/bootdisk.htm

Use Winimage to extract the Win98 boot disk file (.exe) to a
directory.
http://tinyurl.com/s4h

Run the HP utility and format the USB device, for a boot system point
it to the extracted Win98 Directory.

Copy the boot disk directory files to the Memory stick - skip the ones
already copied.

Boot up with the memory stick (bios setting) enable CD support. 

When your Pen Drive boots it will start complaining about something
hit Control+C to stop it from loading anymore - your in.

CTL+C cause it's just easier than explaining how to edit the
autoexec.bat and config.sys files.

Ment to say: copy to the Pen drive.
