Does this happen on regular 98SE? (Reference for others: 98IF is an unofficial Russian 98SE distribution, with a heavily modified setup process)

DevicePath adds installation source directory to path for INFs.

If it doesn't happen on regular 98SE, I would check if there is a .cab that makes that error. Maybe it doesn't like some INFs included or something.

No, sure, its not appear on regular SE. i think, it that SE havent so many infs as IF (110 in current 2018-test3) in distr folder:..
