Clean Install of OS3.9

[Acill]

Thanks, after your post I did some digging and found other posts regarding the same.  So I need to get the CDROM working in OS3.1, make an emergency disk from the OS3.9 CD, replace the hard drive, boot from the floppy and partition/format the hard drive, and continue to install OS3.9.  Let me know if this is wrong.

Thanks.

That is exactly correct.

FUD. The changelogs are clear and public. Most of people's problems come when they try to install them on systems that have been otherwise hacked and patched for years and years. If you install them fresh (after a fresh install of the OS), you shouldn't have any problems. YMMV.

I wish this were true, but I cant even get BB2 official to install on my mostly stock 4000 with just a BigRAM+ in it. BB1 is fine, but as soon as you power off and reboot after BB2 you get a GURU and endless boot loop.

One day I will get this 4000 up and running again past a clean 3.9 install and get these damn BoingBags working so I can start adding in my hardware, lol!!
