98lite might let you strip Win98 pretty easily. The real kicker's going to be paths. See if your main OS will let you format it as a DOS system disk, and then try booting from it - does DOS even work sanely, recognizing the pen drive as the 'C:' drive, and so forth? If so, slap on win98 bootdisk stuff, boot to it, and find some way of installing 98 from a CD or the hard disk, if they're readable. I imagine it'll be hell on the flash RAM chips, though.

Might be fun to try myself, but I don't have a near large enough flash drive sitting around. My 'normal usuable' 98lite installs are usually around 160mB, a normal Win98 install's 250ish.

Keep that in mind;). I dont see why not, but your going to be stripping it down to its boxers and socks.
