huh?

1) you can't run vmware under win98.

2) win98 can't see linux partitions ever.

so which ever way round you mean, it's not gonna happen.

Do you mean you are running a Win98 virtual machine on a Linux host and want Windows to see and use the Linux file system?

If that is what you doing, then you need to read the documentation that came with VMware. You can do that, but it takes making sure your VMware configurations are setup to allow it, and you also need to configure Samba on the Linux host.
