	If you've been using the release II software from Supra on your drive,
it's much simpler than that. Just unhook the drive from your 1000 and plug
it into your 3000. The 3000 will automatically recognise the drive and you
can go on with business. The only thing you'll find is that the volume ID
on the drive will be what used to be the volume name. Ie., SupraDrive0: instead
of DH0:. No need for a MountList entry!

:Thanks.
