start dosbox , (with dosbox.conf mem=64M, cpu Pentium slow, svga_s3)
mount 512M image, boot from boot98_floppy.img
fdisk 512M image, restart dosbox ,
mount 512M image, boot from boot98_floppy.img
format 512M image with system (format c:/s)
copy himem.sys c:

restart dosbox,
mount 512M hd, mount win98se.iso, copy cdrom win98 to 512M hd c:\w
