win98 cd is bootable, it has everything you need to partition/format
harddisk. what you need is to adjust bios setting (boot from CDROM first),
once it boot up, select second option "start with CD support", you can find
all you need in "win98" folder on CD.

> Want to format hard drive of laptop that has only one choice at a time:
cd-ROM or floppy drive.  I have a boot disk and I have win 98 on cd-rom.
Can I load the boot disk in floppy and then swap for the cd-rom to load the
win os during the formatting procedure
