Windows 98 installation help.?

Question

When I try to install windows 98 onto my modern pc, it sees that I have an ext3-formatted partition (Ubuntu), and initiates Scandisk. This would be fine, except that my hard drive is 92GB, and it would take more than a day to do this, which is unacceptable.

Any way to disable this?

Answer 1

Windows 98 installs to the entire disk.  Install 98 first, then Ubuntu.  (If you find a better way, let me know - I still have a Ubuntu box I'd like to install 98 on.)
