Win98 installation: largest executable program size 442368B

I am trying to clean-install windows98 as desribed in this website. After I did fdisk and format the hard drive, when I invoke setup from WIN98 directory, it exits with message:
Windows Setup requires "largest executable program size' to be at least 442368 bytes to run.

Please help to find a solution.
