I have a HP Compaq t5515 thin client computer with a flash disk and USB port. I want to put Win98 onto it, replacing whatever is on there now (I think it is some Linux-based thing). I can find stuff about putting Win98 onto a pen drive and running from that, but I can't find any info about installing Windows 98 from a pen drive onto a sep[arate system.
Is it just a matter of
- making the pen drive bootable to DOS
- copying the contents of a Win98 installation CD onto the pen drive
- booting the HP machine from the pen drive
- running SETUP.EXE from the pen drive?
Any pointers appreciated. TIA
