	Something I noticed, when I upgraded my Lattice compiler from 5.02
to 5.05 (BTW, thanks to Mike Roth for such prompt service to my request!).
I used the script to install it on my hard disk. Everything works fine until
near the end. During installation, I get system requestors asking for disks
names 'Lattice_5.0.5', or something similar. However, after inserting the last
disk and more copying, the system asks for 'Lattice.5' (or something like it).
Anybody else noticed this? I looked at the script, but couldn't see exactly
what the problem was.

	My guess was that the patches had been applied to the original disks,
and the patch disks were called 'Lattice.5' (or something similar). There is
an easy way around it (opoing a new cli, assigning the requested volume to
df0: , or whatever floppy, and clicking retry). however, it's a little
annoying (especially for new users of the amiga). If anybody from Lattice is
reading this, maybe they could look at the problem.

P.S. Anybody doubting Lattice's service - I requested the update as I hadn't
     received the 5.04 update. After being acknowledged, I expected to wait
     about a month for the disks. I got the shock of my life when they arrived
     just over a week later (remember that I live in Australia).

P.P.S I don't work for Lattice etc and associated crap
