I certainly agree with that but like you I'm too nervous to mess about with my CSPPC settings :nervous:
However, your thread made me curious as to whether my A4000 running OS3.9 could boot into a CD containing OS3.1. The answer was yes :-)
For those remotely interested......................
The great program 'CD-Boot' that I use for booting into CD32 games gets my A4000 to check whether a bootable CD is in the drive at a very early stage in booting up (a bootable CD is one containing an S drawer with a startup-sequence of course). If one is found a screen is displayed where you can choose to either continue the boot into OS3.9 or into the bootable CD. For the experiment I copied the contents of the OS3.1 floppy disk set onto the CD-R as if it had been properly installed into it. After choosing to boot into the CD-R i proceeded to boot into OS3.1 instead of OS3.9 and all the partitions of the hard drive were available.
I guess this would be useful for someone using OS3.5 or OS3.9 who wanted to use OS3.1 for a change :-D
