As far as I know, the 'upgrade' disks only work properly when there is another existing 
operating system to upgrade.  Say if the system had Windows 95 already on it the 
98 upgrade CD would upgrade the Windows 95 to  98. But you need the older Operating 
system already on the computer for the upgrade to work.

If there is no previous operating system then you would need the 98 standalone CD. 
You can try Ebay and perhaps get 98se for around $80 or so. Windows 95 however goes 
for dirt cheap. Around $5 or so.

Hope that helps.
