Well it does not.
It doesn't give a single fuck about having a usb drive plugged in or not.

nope.
boot from floppy into some shit like freedos with usb support, format the harddrive, make ity dos system disk and copy over win 98 install disk then run setup.
if it has CD then install shit from cd
if it has network then boot from network and install some shit that can be installed from network - bsd, linux...
