Wanted: Set of Workbench 3.1 Floppies

[Huxley_D]

Hi guys!

First, let me say that I may cross a line with this request, and if I do, please inform me and nuke this thread!

I need a set of Workbench 3.1 Install floppies.  I currently have WB 3.1 (and a KickStart 3.1 ROM) installed in my Amiga 2000, but the WB 3.1 floppies that came with my Amiga were toast years before I got 'em.  I'm looking at setting up a new SCSI drive for my A2000, and I'd like to create a "fresh" installation on my new drive.

I'm genuinely a bit confused about the proper way to acquire a new set of floppies (home-made or otherwise!) - since I have WB 3.1 and KS 3.1 already (though not in a working floppy format), am I allowed to see if someone will create a set of dupes for me?

Any guidance would be awesome!

PS  Just a random thought - since my system is working now, and has a working CD reader, would it be possible to install WB 3.1 onto a blank drive from a CD, or would I actually need the floppies?

Do you have any old coverdisks from back in the day? Many of those have enough of a workable Workbench environment to get started with, i.e., boot into a desktop. Otherwise, you'll either have to buy a set of WB 3.1 floppies from someone here or on eBay.

Since you have a working CD drive, have you considered purchasing WB 3.5 OR 3.9? They both come on CD-ROM.

Wow, I guess I hadn't even thought about moving up to 3.5 or 3.9!  On my system (A2000 with 33MHz '040) would those systems be workable, or would they bog down my somewhat overloaded Miggy?
