Jeff,

I screwed up and wrote:

Then sys the C: drive with the W98 rescue disk to restore command.com
and io.sys.

Note: The default W98 rescue disk does not contain sys.com, so copy it

But to answer your question, Jeff; I don't know.  :)
Maybe set the system date back(in the BIOS) before booting with the
fat32 rescue disk.

If you care to experiment, let us know how you make out!  :)
