- Me too.
- I just got the package from Software Hut yesterday.
- I had prepared by backing up the old WB2_x and Work partitions
- on my HD.
- So I reformatted the HD, and set up a larger partition for SYS:
- Everytime I get a new version of AmigaDOS, I have to do that ;=}
- Then I installed 3.1 ...
- Then I restored the backups, with the system told to not
- overwrite a file already on the drive.
- Now, about a day later, this A3000 is working with A-DOS 3.1
- It Is Slick!
- I shoulda' upgraded sooner.
