Hi!
I have my 1200 installed in a Power Tower with following specs: Apollo 1240@40mhz Winner Zorro IV Busboard Xsurf 2 Repulse Piccolo Kickstart 3.1 32mb Ram My OS 3.9 install is f***ed up and my install boot disk has died on me. I wanna install OS 3.9 but with no disk its hard. I still have the cd though. What i wonder about is: -How to install os 3.9 using Winaue? -Will everything become faster with a Budda Flash Gold MKII? -Can i Boot from CD if i get the Budda? -How to i connect another simm socket to my Apollo? -Can i use a a2091 scsi card in my setup? -Can i dual boot with linux and os 3.9? -Can i only use a Budda or do the main disk have to be connected to the ide port on the Mainboard? -Can i connect a differt fan and a heatsink to the cpu on the Apollo, if yes how? I have no intention on getting a ppc or a mediator because they are insanely expensive!

-How to install os 3.9 using Winaue?
There are some tutorials on the net. I bet you will find them easy if you google a bit. -Will everything become faster with a Budda Flash Gold MKII? No -Can i Boot from CD if i get the Budda? No -How to i connect another simm socket to my Apollo? Solder it on the other side. -Can i use a a2091 scsi card in my setup? Yes -Can i dual boot with linux and os 3.9? Yes -Can i only use a Budda or do the main disk have to be connected to the ide port on the Mainboard? No -Can i connect a differt fan and a heatsink to the cpu on the Apollo, if yes how? Yes

How do i attach a fan and heatsink to the cpu? Thermal paste is enough to get it to hold?
My google skills seems to suck at this time, but how do i solder the simm socket to the card?....Great to have some help instead of just single word answers

I think thermal paste is not good enough, you should get thermal glue, or a heatsink that already has doublesided thermal adhesive.
IIRC, you can install OS3.9 from HDD, using virtual drive or playing with assign. I'd install 3.1 first.
