Chris,
you should run mysqld-max.exe on Win 98. mysqld.exe was accidentally
compiled with __NT__ defined, and that causes the assertion failure.
This is fixed in 3.23.39: InnoDB asks from the OS whether it is
Win 95, 98, ME, or NT, 2000.
MySQL documentation you find at www.mysql.com, and
InnoDB at www.innodb.com. You should look at InnoDB startup options
and specify them in my.cnf.
Best regards,
Heikki Tuuri
