It's the question of THEY want you to do, vs. what YOU want to do.
Your PC, your choice. You can take the HDD, any size and partition all you need, THEY require that as a default.
My experience has taught me that Win98 needs <4G. Then you set up another partition, this where your programs lives, /D:.
You can buy a partition maker, or get get one for FREE.
All you have to do is download a Linux LiveCD, than burn it. Make sure it has QTparted, included, otherwise it might not so easy to figure out.
QTparted is free, PartitionMagic is not.
