Not sure if it has been covered before but I always have an absolute nightmare formatting the hdd in the Windows 98 setup environment. It often hangs and only if I'm lucky will it fully format it.
What I do everytime now is use an IDE - USb adapter, plug it into my windows 10 laptop and format using Disk Manager.
Fat32 -Quick Format. I don't assign the drive a letter and I mark the partition active. I have wasted hours of my life watching win98 try and format my disks..
Hope this helps someone.
