Default too much memory?

To improve the sluggishness of WinXP I bought an AMD Athlon dual core
machine with 2 Gb RAM and 512 Mb video and wanted to install a 98SE/XP dual
boot system.
1th disappointment: swapping drives C and D isn't offered by the Award BIOS
anymore, so I'll need a boot manager (I thought). But soon a new obstacle
appeared: with 2048 Mb of RAM, the 98SE installer pertains there isn't
enough memory to properly setup the O/S and suggests that I first remove the
resident software to free some space!
Is there a workaround for this?
