There is no one file.  See
http://www.phear.net/~jim/FreeBSD/dl_for_dos_install.txt for the files
you'll need to download to your dos partition to install FreeBSD from
there.  Also, I suggest reading the FAQ, and the handbook at
http://www.freebsd.org/.

Not sure what you mean here.  You can't run FreeBSD _from_ Win98 if
that's what you mean.  It will exist on the same hard drive with
Win98, and you'll be able to choose which one to boot into though. 
Read the handbook (http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook.html) for
more details.
