Installing OS 3.9 with a Surf Squirrel... HELP!

[blobrana]

hi MrBang...
Good choise with the 0s3.9 and 3.1roms...

Hum,
I just didn't bother with the Emergency Boot floppy, as i have another boot partition (10mb) on my hard drive for emergencies...
You could just copy by hand all the files all the libraries and files from the CD to the Hard drive. (Best to check the version numbers along the way as well).


Have a look at my Startup-sequence (you will probably need to alter it to suit your system though.)

The bit where it says:
C:SetPatch quiet ;SKIPROMMODULES"scsi.device"
is the important bit...

Fairly straightforward,

good luck.

Yeah, squirrelSCSI.device is where the problems are arising from...

CD0:>

FileSystem   = L:CDFileSystem
Device   = sqUIRRElscsi.deVice
Unit      = <A number like 0,1,2,3...>


Like i said,
i would recon  it`s easier to install OS3.1(with the squirrel working) first then  just decant the entire 3.9 CD onto the Hard-drive.
