Once you get that set up, if you would like assistance in re-installing the
drivers for Linux, shoot me an Email privately at [EMAIL PROTECTED] and I'll
see what I can do...

Yes, W98SE (et al) overwrites the MBR at install.  You can boot CD1 and 
press F1 at the screen instructions to get a rescue session, from which 
you can reinstall lilo or grub to the MBR.  Instructions are at this 
page in MUO Docs:  http://www.mandrakeuser.org/docs/admin/arecov.html#mdk
