Bootable linux partition - I guess ext2(/3)? Any fat partitions on the 1st disk?
Assuming your win98 partition was c: under the other computer...
- you could either try hiding/removing/rearranging, by bios/boot/grub/physically exchanging the cable positions.
(as was somewhat suggested in my previous post)

Will switching the drives mess up my DSL install?
Well you'd have to edit grub again, and point your backup/restore/etc scripts to the new location.
