SYS: is automatically assigned to the device you booted from. So make sure you didn't boot from the Asim floppy.

The other issue that Thomas alluded to is *too much* space on a partition. Older versions of Installer, which I suspect Asim is using, get confused if more than 2GB of space is available. Simply change the default tool of the install icon on the Asim disk to point to the version of Installer on your hard drive (either in C: or SYS:Utilities). The 3.9 install should have put it there for you.

Finally, make sure you're using Asim 3.10 and not an older version.

That did the trick Matt...you were right, my Boot partition is 3.8Gigs which I am sure caused some problems, that issue, along with redirecting the installer icon to SYS:Utilities worked....so thank you

BTW: I am ~ 30min west of Boston....we should connect some day to chat more. I am in process of reviving my old A2000 !

Thanks for your help


Glad that worked! Always nice to see another local user, and welcome (back?) to the scene. I think there are a few others Massachusetts people here as well. A local meetup sometime would be fun!
