I have an Apple HD20 hard disk which, of course, runs off the external drive port. My question, after hearing various comments about the Installer problems, is: Once the upgrade has taken place, will my HD20 work as is, or do I have to perform some surgery on the System 3.2 already on that disk? Also, what must I do to the various programs stuck (by copy protection) on floppies? Could anyone who has gone this route post a summary of what has to be done, and what problems to look out for?
