I have a KS 3.1 for my 3000 that's been modified to allow for a 060 with FPU.  If I understand what's been posted, I don't need to change the ROM and can just use the disks and modules disk?  I'm fairly green on this stuff..

Yes, you can. The system will then go through one reboot on the coldstart to install the new modules.

Is it feasible to make a custom 3.1.4 rom that has whatever modification my current one has?

You posted this on your bug fix thread (I didn't want to post there...)

"First, if you have a 060 processor, you no longer need an F-Space fix to turn off the FPU. Exec no longer crashes on a 060 FPU. Yet, you still need the 68060.library to enable it. This was to avoid incompatibilities."

So if I understand this correctly, when physical roms are available, they will work as is with my 3000 and 3640 w/060+FPU.  Correct?  This "F-Space fix" is what was done to the ROM I used currently?  I know I can thick, but I'd hate to purchase something (when available) to find out I'm wrong.
