You don't have so much space for Linux imho, anyway....do you really 
need Win98? It's more than obsolete, it is archaic!! :-)

Boot from the Fedora cdrom #1, then you can choose for a system upgrade 
(from your RH to Fedora) or to delete the linux partitions
(pay attention to rightly select "delete the LINUX partitions 
and...etc") and begin a new installation. If I have to install a new
system I prefer to delete everything and install a new system, but it is 
your choice!

Fedora will easily do the job for you and your friend Bill :-)

Don't worry, Fedora installation is very simple. Have fun!
