I still need Win98 for some hardware, such as to set an IP address for a 
Linksys router.  And to upgrade a 1997 USR modem to V90.  Or if I wanted 
to use certain printers.

Nobody here told you that.  You could have asked here first.
It is even possible to make the 20MB version any size you want without 
having a separate linux partition.  Such as 100MB so you can load all the 
add-ons, or 5MB so you can run it from a USB camera (except it ends up 
being read-write for some unknown reason).

Please help to improve the documentation with specific suggestions.  You 
may have missed something, or it may be missing.
