No Floppy Installation of W98

[gareth1]

I'm trying to run a system with only a HDD(C and a 100Mb USB Zip which I would like to label A:.&nbsp;&nbsp;However, even after disabling the floppy in the BIOS, Windows still places a symbol in My Computer for a phantom zip drive, labelling it A: and my real zip, labelling it D:.&nbsp;&nbsp;The phantom is redundant, but Windows never quite catches on.<br><br>Does anyone know how I can get HDD(C and Zip100USB(A?<br><br>Cheers<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Gareth

I have never tried to get a zip as drive &quot;A&quot; but I have seen Windows label a zip as floppy B when it's jumpered as slave and when here is no jumper on the drive it will label it correctly as a removable disk.&nbsp;&nbsp;If you ever do get this to work, I seriously doubt that the BIOS will recognize the zip as the first boot device in case of HDD failure since a zip is an IDE device.
