The Emergency Disk is not just preferable, it is essential for a proper installation of OS3.5 or OS3.9. To install the OS correctly, you must create the Emergency Disk, boot from it, and install from there.

Hmmm... never bothered with that myself.  I've made the disk, but always continued the installation of OS3.9 over OS3.1 without rebooting.

AFAIK installing 3.9 without using the Emergency Disk is asking for trouble since it can result in wrong versions of things or something. I can't really remember now, but I think it's something to do with needing the new kickstart version up and running before installing.
