I have 2003 server installed on my file server and I would like to dual boot with 98 so I can use my SCSI scanner. Can I do this without removing 2003 server or do I need the FAT partition as drive C: ?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

This will not by any means, be a detialed answer, but will set you down the right road.

Use a program like partition magic, to resize your main partition, if it is using the whole drive. Make a new primary partition for Win98. Make sure it is FAT32. Boot to it, and install Win98 and drivers, make sure you install bootmagic as well. Thats the short answer, have fun.
