OS 3.5 on an A 2000?

[Fester]

Should I be able to install OS 3.5 on an Amiga 2000?

Documentation with the OS 3.5 CD doesn't mention that machine.

- The 2000 is equipped with the 3.1 ROMS

- Plenty of RAM (Need to verify)

- The boot hd has OS 3.1 on it. Works fine.

- The CD drive works properly

- I've got well over 20 megs of disk space.

- I've got a 030 accelerator in there.

Problem: When I insert the os 3.5 CD, I get as far as doing a pre-installation. When prompted to reboot the Amiga, I remove the CD and any floppies. The Amiga reboots and then I insert the CD again and move on to the installation (That's radio button 2). Well, it doesn't want to do the install. It asks to do the pre-install again, as if nothing happened the first time around.

Looks like my install cratered too. (I like that expresssion). It's not letting me build the emergency boot disk at this point. Ha! Should have done that first.

Will start over with a clean 3.1 install and do like ral-clan said, preparing the boot disk first. :-)

Thanks for your advice!

I finally got OS 3.5 installed and running on an Amiga 2000. Once I did a fresh install of 3.1, I had no problems installing 3.5.
