you can use a bootdisk to go into dos and just type format C:
to wipe the disk and you can just intsall 2000 over the top
there is no reason why you should need the 98 cd to do this

go to http://www.bootdisk.com/ if you need a bootdisk

Boot off the windows 2000 CD. Reformat to NTFS and use the entire C: and you will be alright.

Put the Win2k CD into the drive, reboot, and follow the instructions on the screen.
