If you think you install linux on Win98 you are in for a little learning
curve :)
First you have to make a new partition on your drive (or another drive if
you have it). If you don't want to lose your win98 stuff, resize your
current partition with partition magic or something of the sort. The
install linux to that new partition.
You can install linux on an existing win98 partition, but I wouldn't
recommend it if you want to see the real power of linux.
I would recommend doing some heavy reading for couple days, pick up a book,
or go to www.linux.org and read the HOW-TO's or something.
have fun
