The original 3.1 install disks have everything you need to do it !
Well, that too. But you and I both know that people tend to lose those over the years, floppy disks go bad, people don't want to pay for new ones, blah blah. The ACA 500+ (which OP mentions owning) includes the capability to install & partition a 3.1 system directly, without any disks. Or so it says in it's product description, lol. :rofl:
