yes.
I have installed Win98SE from scratch using the MSDN CD-ROM.
I have started the installation from a rescue disk (in which I have
kept only the oakcdrom.sys driver - I had some trouble with the others).

All the installation went okay but at the reboot it did not recognize the
cdrom. I copied oakcdrom.sys in c:\windows\system and I added:

to c:\config.sys
device=c:\windows\system\oakcdrom.sys /D:MSCD001

to c:\autoexec.bat
mscdex /D:MSCD001

Then I could access also the cdrom.

The network interface is configured as novell-antherm "NE 2000
compatible"
IRQ and IOMEM must be configured by hand.

I have already a problem with the video adapter.
At boot time it says there is a configuration problem, but I have not
found yet a way to reconfigure it. I was told there is a vesa driver for
bochs somewhere....
For now it works as a standard vga 640x480/4bits.
