Installing second OS on partitioned drive

Hi, I have partitioned my HD to allow Win98 along with WinXP. Win XP is on C:
and all works fine, BUT I can't boot my 98SE cd to install it.

I set my bios to try all drives and it finds the CD, and goes to the point
where it asks if I want to boot the 98 CD (it does see it), then I get a
message OEMCD001 no drivers found.

Any thoughts out there?
