reinstall win98se on laptop broken cd

[wrmedia]

want to reinstall clean win98se on toshiba laptop with broken cd

I was thinking of create a new partition, copy win98se to new partition from usb cd then set this partition as boot then load from hd

possible? will I need patition magic? any other better ideas?

Yes , you will need partion magic to accomplish what you are trying to do that way.
But you could put the install stuff in a directory of its own and reinstall over the top which SE is better at than any other win version.
Or you could put the dos commands into another directory and boot into the DOS only and deltree everything in the windows and programs and then install clean without a second partiton. Ed Fair
