Before reboot?
If yes, I'm out of ideas

One more thing. The sb emulation also runs from config.sys or autoexec.bat during first boot, before going to win98. Is that how it should be?

Yes, that's the expected behavior.

Those lines get added automatically when Creative's DOS driver pack is installed.

In that case I think I do everything right. I don't want to reinstall things now, as it runs fine in W98 and all my games run from W98.
