I forgeot to mention, if you choose the try the "live" LINUX CD option, many images 
(ISO files) are available at:

My favorite is KNOPPIX.  This is a large download, about 700 Meg for the CD image, 
but it is very easy to use, becasue it contains a lot of drivers and self-configures 
to the hardware.  (They also offer a DVD image, with even more applicatin software, 
and also free.)  For use of a 98-vinatage PC, I would recommend one of the older 
versions, perhaps 4 or even verison 3.8.  Try the Kernel.org link (http) at the following 
page:
