Windows 2000 remove and install 98

Hello, I am trying to multi-boot my PC with 98 and XP. I have Win2000 on my machine right now. I want to get Win2000 off my machine, then install Win98, and then install WinXP last. My first goal is to format my HD and get 2000 off. I tried booting from the 98 CD in order to erase and install first. I changed the boot order in my machine to read CD-ROM first. The boot failed and it goes back to loading Windows 2000. I know that now I must need to create a boot disk to read the setup.exe file on my Win 98 cd, but I do not know how to create a bootdisk for this. =( 1. How do I create a bootdisk (step-by-step help), in order to just load win 98's setup? 2. This will also format my drive and get rid of Win2000, I hope? Thank you in advance for any help. Been trying to plug away at this for about 5 hours now with no go. (ed. I also tried running the file: fat32edb.exe from the Win98 cd. I can't do that in Windows 2000 though =(.)
