Oh Boy!
SOP says backup before you do some thing critical.
I assume that you have not formated the win me disk when you did your
install.
 
if the answer to my assumption is "not formated" proceed.. 

1. boot win98 from a floppy/CD 
2. see if you can see the windoze drives can dir them.

if that is done then unplug the HDD and connect to another system preff
with a CD writer and runing windoze.

3. backup your data on the CD

Take a deep breath

i know you should be quite capable of restoring the windoze data
yourself.


PS i have not had very friendly experiences when i do a upgrade from say
RH 7.x to RH 7.2x what ever.

I would recomend clean install if its not a production machine
else update kernels / packages manually.

Hope this helps.
