While it is theoretically possible to boot a modern PC wityh the right hardware via 
a network connection that requries a special network card, not the common NIC found 
on many motherboards.  

In theory, it is also possible to install 98 on a different PC, then "clone" it over 
a network to another PC.  I think that the corporate version of Norton GHOST can 
do that.

But, seriously, the easy solution is to get a CD drive.  Plain CD drives are very 
cheap (under $25).  And, even DVD/CD writer drives are not much these days (many 
under $50).  Besides, you will need/want the CD drive for many other purposes.
