Hello Jonesy

Welcome to PC Help Forums

Your trying to install 98 yes?
Ok at the A: prompt type R as that looks to be the cdrom drive letter like thus;
A:/R
the display should then change to R:/
Then type Setup like so;
R:/setup

You do have the 98 cd in the drive yes?
It may well be that the floppy is bad, try a new one from Bootdisk.Com
