Is it dangerous to use OS3.9 (+BB2) _without_ the ROM UPDATE?

[delshay]

i have problems here..


i have back-up my system on cd-rom,transfering the same infomation from cd to my 2.5 hd ( all ibm ) 4.8gb 25gb & 48bg all works ok..


when transfering to my hitichi 60gb 7200rpm it will just keep resetting my computer at boot-up,even with a new install of os3.9.

bb1 ok
bb2 no


the problem seems to be the hitachi drive or the a1200 ide interface..


NOTE: when the hitachi drive is installed the access light is always lit at all times..to stop this i install 4x ide interface no software drivers..

its not the cable,i can use the same cable for the other drives all work ok..im useing the drive now to type this minus bb2 installation..


i will try skipromupdate later..
