diskspare.device can store more data on the floppy than trackdisk.device but it's not bootable as far as i remember. it would be a good idea to use if it was bootable.

If i am going to have bugs on my system,
at least let me keep the latest versions.

or, after you have finish the proces, post a file list here so everyone that have the proper files, can put them together and make a similar super-floppy :-)

at least i do. i have already made an updated emergency disk with all the latest versions of the original disk files plus some extra stuff as a cli and diskmaster1.3 and mount files for pcmcia card flash reader for both pc and ffs formats but i think that all these are not enough!

-edit-
of course this setup still need the amigaos3.9 cd to boot...
