Let's discuss. I want to make a Win98 on a mobile hard drive, so that it can be connected to other computers via USB and run the 98 installed on this hard drive. The hard drive is divided into two partitions, C and D. The disk has Win98 Plus 1, that is, the 98 that is only 68M. After installation, directly connect the hard drive to the IDE interface (the mobile hard drive is a 3.5-inch hard drive + USB - IDE adapter cable). Set to boot from this hard drive, and can successfully enter the 98 system. But considering that I can't always open other people's cases, when plugging into the USB interface, boot with a floppy disk, load aspiusb, di10000dd, can correctly identify this hard drive and two partitions. The problem is that the drive letters are I and J at this time. Although using lessig to change drive letter J to C under DOS, setting BootGUI=0 in msdos.sys, and entering win will crash soon,好像提示找不到 c:\windows\下的ifh?? (the help file says). Everyone, what's the problem, and how to solve it? Is the path setting in msdos.sys incorrect

It may be a problem with MSDOS.SYS. Try not to change the drive letter with LESSIG, and change all C: in the section to I:. That IFH?? file should be IFSHLP.SYS, which is the file system installation help file and is necessary for Win98 to start.

Change everything to I:? What about a machine with only 2 partitions or no hard drive?

Directly changing to i won't work. It seems that when booting, it first reads msdos.sys, and at that time, there isn't enough time to read config.sys to load the USB drive, so drives like i, j, etc. don't exist. The drive letters are only valid after loading the USB drive; also, drive letters vary depending on the partitions of different machines. I think it's actually about booting with a floppy disk first and then how to run Win98 on other partitions under DOS. Which expert has done this before, come and introduce it

io.sys, msdos.sys, config.sys are all copied and overwritten to the original files on the boot floppy. Modify msdos.sys, leave only the third line in path = a, gui = 0; add three lines in config.sys to load himen, aspiusb, di10000dd. After booting, run subst to change the USB flash drive to C, enter Windows and go to win. It seems that there are fewer errors. Then it dies saying that the registry or something is not found and VFAT Device Initialization Failed. A device or resource required by VFAT is not present or is unavailable. VFAT cannot continue loading. Is it that Windows cannot start on 98 on a USB flash drive (although the drive letter was changed under DOS later)?

Maybe it's that Windows 98 needs a USB drive driver. The DOS - based driver might not be used for Windows 98 anymore.

After I used the 6m WIN98.GHO to restore to the USB flash drive, I changed c: to a: in msdos.sys (my USB flash drive is drive A after booting), and it can boot 98 but cannot display Chinese characters normally, showing garbled characters.

Below is the speech of dijias on 2004-9-6 18:06:51:
VFAT Device Initialization Failed A device or resource required by VFAT is not present or is unavailable.VFAT cannot continue loading.请问win是不是不能启动不固定盘符(u盘，虽然之后doa下改盘符）上的９８？
I have the same problem as you! Looking forward to a solution!

No, the key is where the Win98 is installed when making mini98, then the made mini98 can only be in this path
