Not install BB#1 after install3.9 straight away? that way it has updated
everything to the newest versions before you start copy any other software
over.

as for PFS... hmm.. IF I can et a copy at the forthcoming Kickstartshow I
will buy it, otherwise I guess I will have to do without :-/ (only have
50quid to spend I guess! :-((( )

Hmm.. Why unplug the Flyer? I have not done that on my system when I have
reinstalled everything. I just make sure that I can install the Flyers
drivers easily.

As for the Other hacks, I notice the Steve mentions FBlit in his list - Dont
install this on a Graphics card system! It isnt needed and causes stability
problems when used with them.
