Name this Guru

I'm tring to install OS 3.9 on my A2000.
I installed the 3.1 rom.
When I try to install OS 3.9 I get a Guru.
It says 8000003.
What does this guru mean??
I would think an A2000 can run OS 3.9.

Help ??

Ummm .........
OS 3.1 installed with no problems.

I tried installing OS 3.9 both with the
accellerator (68030) and without (68000).
Guru both ways.
I have 2 megs chip ram (Dkb MegaChip) and
a Supra 8 meg ram card (6 megs installed).
I've tried with and without the ram card.
I've tried all combinations.
Same results.......Guru

The machine runs fine on OS 3.1.

Thats what I was tring to do.

Thats the way I did it on my A3k and it worked fine.

I tried installing over OS 3.1 on the A2000 and I get
the Guru. I just don't have any idea whats causing it.
It should work, the manual says it can be installed on
a clean HD or over OS 3.1 or OS 3.5.
I made an Emergency Boot disk (880k) on my A3k but
the A2000 won't even boot from that.
The floppy drive is good, no problems with any other disk.

Sounds like a place to start.........
It has to be something like that.
