Installing windows 98se

[trav5]

I killed my 2kpro install that came on my laptop(no cd) last night. I have a legit copy of 98se. How do I install it on a small partition without formatting my edgy install?

Should I have posted this somewhere else? Sorry I am new to forums.

Download GParted (http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php) and make a FAT32 partition. After installing 98, you will have to recover GRUB (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows).

Thanks I just wanted to make sure that the windows install wont format the entire drive.

If your laptop is not too old and has decent memory, you could always try running your Windows 98 in vmware player.
