What if you were to use Linux to make a FAT32 partition bootable, copy the bootdisk to that partition, then reboot, thereby installing it from the hard disk? I think it is possible, just I probably need to mind the disk configuration (data tree or file tree; create the right folders; set the attributes right; other housekeeping)

This boot disk is from Microsoft Windows 98 Second Edition retail package, thanks.
Worked for me.
thank you for this

The base install needs to be installed from a boot disk, the upgrade can work under a version of DOS and/or Windows.
P.S Thanks so much.
