Subject:   installing 2.0R off CD, any gotchas?
Message-ID:  <D1Fq1p.3G@reptiles.org>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
so far i've deduced that i should scoop down new boot floppies and not
use the ones on the January 1994 8^) CD.

also, i'm told that bad144 tracking _might_ work for my ESDI drives if i
use the entire drive.

ok, i think i'm ready to roll.

if anyone has any additional things i should do please let me know,
i'm looking at starting the install late tonight (if i don't come home
_too_ drunk) or tomorrow (unless i decide to go out and get drunk).

if all goes well, i'll be installing 2.0 on a pair of spare ESDI 330 Meg
drives on a proxy machine.  i'll then move the user files from my existing
1.1.5.1 machine and swap the hard drives.

i'd appreciate any advice.
