need help with MSDOS partitions

[maximadave]

I need help creating an appropriate partition so that I may continue to install windows 98. My computer tells me that I need to have this partition in order to install win98. Can someone tell me the commands I need to input to create the partition? I need to install WIN98 cuz its not my computer and thats what came with it.

Also, make sure you have a Windows 98 boot disk with drivers for your CD-ROM drive before you do anything.

Start your WINDOWS SETUP CD. Goto the WIN98 FOLDER and type OEMSETUP.
This will do it all for you...
