The big advantage for a 3000 user will be the scsi device update (assuming it is on the rom).  

Getting a new drive working in a 3000 with the stock controller is a challenge.

I can see this saving time and energy, you can start a new install of 3.9 without using another system to configure the drive ahead of time.

That would be my thought.

Without really digging into it, I don't really see how this would be of any use to someone already running a fully patched 3.9. But  I suspect I'm not their target market.  Thoughts?

Matt: i have installed 3.1 on amiga 3000s no problem... also 2.04. default install disks work fine no need for another computer.


Hey Magnetic,

I have installed large ssd via adapter and large scsi drive that can't be recognized or use large partitions on the old scsi.device over the years.  I would think that the new scsi device would aid in large disk partitioning at least.  Have you been able to set large partitions booting on a stock install?
