the XP CD is bootable...but if you still want bootdisks here you go (6 disks, btw)

you can do that...but you don't need to run fdisk because the WinXP setup has a partition/format section in it

If you want to use a win98 boot disk just boot it, and run i386\winnt.exe on the CD

Still, I don't know why you can't just boot to the CD.
