You can use LILO, just set up Windows98 as a default OS to boot.
The HOWTO on LILO is located at sunsite.unc.edu/mdw/HOWTO
or just look in /usr/doc/lilo/

And your /etc/lilo.conf file may look like this
i) For a Linux (default) and Windows machine
boot=/dev/hda2
root=/dev/hda2
compact
install=/boot/boot.b
map=/boot/map
vga=normal
delay=20
image=/vmlinuz
label=Linux
read-only
other=/dev/hda1
label=dos
table=/dev/hda
ii) For a Windows (default) and Linux machine
boot=/dev/hda2
root=/dev/hda2
compact
install=/boot/boot.b
map=/boot/map
vga=normal
delay=20
other=/dev/hda1
label=dos
table=/dev/hda
image=/vmlinuz
label=Linux
read-only
In either cases you can choose the OS at boot time.
