It sounds like you are using a RAID controller that isn't supported by the Win98 boot disk (surprise). Usually, you aren't going to find much in the way of good quality SCSI support for Win9x installation purposes. It's been a while since I have installed Win9x on anything, but I can't really recall having the option to install third party SCSI drivers at boot for installation. Then again, I didn't have the need to either.
