lots of posts on this - do a search.
To use conventional M$ wisdom you need to install 98 first.
As you haven't, you'll need:-
1. Somewhere to put win98 (eg, second hard drive, second partition on single hard drive, unpartitioned space on a hard drive). If you haven't any spare space, you'll need something like Partition Magic to shrink yoour 2k partition to make room for 98 one.
2. Third party boot manager - I'd recommend one at (free for personal use).
3. win2k partition will need to be hidden while you install 2k (boot-us can do this for you - if on separate disks, just disconnect 2k wihile you install 98.
