Installing Windows 98SE or Me using the Addonics USB CD-
ROM, DVD-ROM, DVD/CDRW or DVD-R/RW drive.

above. Except instead of copying the I386 folder to the hard drive, you will
copy the Windows 98SE folder or the Windows Me folder to the hard drive.

space in your local hard drive. At least 2Gb or higher.

drive.

At the prompt, go to the C:\drive by typing “C: then enter”
4.
At the Local Drive C:\drive, create a Folder name. For example at the
C:\prompt type “MD 98” doing this will create a folder name “98” on
your local hard drive.
5.
Now type “R: then enter” to go to the R:\drive
6.
At the R:\prompt type the following “Path=A:" then press enter
7.

between Xcopy and the dot)

Destination drive
Using USB floppy or other equivalent of removable storage device.
If your system does not have a built-in floppy drive, you may use a USB floppy,
ZIP drive, CD or USB hard drive. But your system BIOS must have support for
booting from USB floppy, ZIP, CD-ROM or hard drive. Make sure the media
that you use to boot the system contains all the files from the dosboot.img in
step 5.
