Have you considered VMware? (Or some other virtualization software.)

Unless I'm confused on what the OP meant . . .

VMware allows users to run multiple instances of x86 or x86-64
-compatible operating systems on a single physical PC.

Install vmware server on an Ubuntu machine and build a Windows 98 VM.

vmware...virtualbox...

Although my system melted down trying to get virtualbox working and
vmware has had "issues" with recent 2.6 kernels.

Consider VirtualBox, I'm not sure what repository it's in.

If you want to run the full Windows 98... emulators are good.
VirtualBox, VMWare, QEMU... all fine.

If you want to run Windows 98 APPLICATIONS, then consider WINE, or a
user friendly packaging (but commercial)of such : CrossOver Office, from
http://www.codeweavers.com/
