I have a couple of questions concerning some of the steps listed for upgrading OS3.9.

You stated:

3-replaced serial.device for the older less buggy one

Is the older less buggy one the one from OS3.5? I had never heard this before. Is this common knowledge and a step that most people use?


My internet connection failed on A4000 after installing the boing bag with serial.device Version 43.7.
I Just repaired it by reverting to serial.device from the OS3.9 CD Version 43.3.

4-replaced all buggy printer drivers for the original AmigaOS 3.5 ones

Are all of the printer drivers in 3.9 buggy or just a few? If just a few which ones are they?


Actually, this may be about the 2 different OS3.9 CDs, which are described in Varthall's link. One had the erroneous printer drivers, one did not. We've compared these files in irc between the 2 different CDs and can confirm this. I 1st noticed this when I unarc'd the boing bags and found files identical to ones I already had.
Further research showed that these were the printer drivers from the "o.k." OS3.9 CD, which I was fortunate enough to have from the start.
