New user - need help installing OS3.9 on large harddrive

[trilobyte]

The OS3.9 emergency disk never worked for me, it hangs after displaying 'invalid resident.library'. I used your answers in another thread to no avail. I've got the 68040/060 (Ive got the ppc installed now) libs on disk aswell as the correct workbench.library. I dont understand how this would have changed my case though, would it have made HDToolBox display the correct disksize?

You can't use OS 3.9 with Kickstart 3.0 ROMs.

See the last item here: http://www.gregdonner.org/os39faq/installtips.html

Upgrade your ROMs (to 3.1) and try again.

agreed, but hey, I want to install both anyway. I think its better to stick with FFS for now. reformatting and giving it a try in a few days time.

Thanks again.

Don't forget to set MaxTransfer.
