Warning long post following.
he is What I did in my PPC/Mediator setup.
use at your own risk!!!

1. formatted HD with SFS .

2. Installed OS 3.9 onto HD

3. installed CDROM software  from 3.9 install script

4. installed PowerPC software support Warp OS V5 from 3.9 install           script selected Wshell Support&other GFX card from Question.

5. Installed BPPCFix from WarpUP archive. In the Startup-sequence before setpatch wrote  C:BPPCFix Install >NIL:
     Fixes nasty terminate message on starting desktop and is needed to prevent BB2 problems

6. Installed Boing Bag One & Two

7. Installed MUI 3.8 choose to install image sets & Example programs

8. Installed off of MM CD Mediator 2.9 system files,Enhanced Voodoo         drivers,Warp 3d using supplied install script

9. Installed picasso96-2_1b using install script.
     Choose Cybervison 64 3D as the graphic card.
     Found the CVision3D and CVision3D.info in the DEVS:Monitors
     drawer, renamed these files to Voodoo and Voodoo.info,
     respectively.
     Changed in the tool type window of the Voodoo.icon:  
                            BOARDTYPE = from CVision3D to Voodoo.
     Double Clicked on the Voodoo icon (in Devs:Monitors drawer).
     Started  the Picasso96Mode program (in SYS:Prefs drawer) and  
     selected
     Attach setting to Board0: Voodoo.
     Set up some screen modes 320X200,640X400,800X600,1024X768
     Saved exited and rebooted Machine.


10.Installed mediator updates so all files match that of Mediator           system files list on web Site confirmed to have all files and         all up to date. Remember Make sure you have the A1200 version of Warp 3d installed not the A4000 version. MMCD installed the wrong ones for me.
