I have a lot of parts coming in for my A1200 Tower project. I have a 68030 Apollo accelerator w/16Mb ram. I have a 4 channel IDE card. I have a 40GB hdd and a ncie DVD/CDRW drive. I have WB 2.04 on disk and 3.1 ROMS. I have the OS 3.9 CD and would love to just install this.. But..
 
What I don't have is any idea whatsover of how to get OS 3.9 installed. Do I need to have WB 3.1 installed first??? How do I get the A1200 to boot from CD to install the OS. I have the CD and no documentation.
 
Would someone please write up a little tutorial on how to accomplish this?
 
THanks!!

I recently installed it on a compact flash card os3.9 using winuae.
 
I booted up with workbench 3.1 work bench disk and then ran the hd tool box stuff, set up the partitions, etc and then ran install on cd.
 
It was pretty easy going through this way, but am not familar how to do it with the setup you've got.
