Hey welcome and congratulations you have the flagship amiga many ppl wish they had! Anyway, you will need the Workbench 3.1 disks to install the os and prep the HD. These are sold by numerous amiga dealers worldwide and are reasonably priced.

@ OP

You can also get your hands on AsimCDFS on floppy, this along with the 3.1 disks will allow you setup the 4k to be able to install 3.9 *yes its a PITA.

Like the SACC guy said if you have the emergency floppy (sounds like you dont) it would be easy to install 3.9 straight away
