...means you have lost the Windows 98 install CD then there is nothing that you can type that will reinstall Windows.
From there you need to log the CDROM drive...type D: and hit Enter.
Then at the D: prompt type setup and hit Enter.

NOTE: Some bootdisks make the CDROM R: by default so it would be R: Enter then setup Enter.
To find which drive it is if it's not D or R use the dir command for each letter of the alphabet starting with D:
