At least you have managed to make a boot disk.
I had similar problems, but it would boot but not load oS3.9 from CD. It
just hung with the wait symbol for ages.
Bought OS3.9 from PowerComputing. Phoned them up, someone talked me through
the installation until it, as usual, hung. They then made me a disk and
set it to me. It seems there is more than one version of OS3.9, and
PowerComputing were not aware of this, they had an earlier copy. They are
different.
Try contacting your supplier, as the copy I have that they made won't be
compatable with your set-up, ie Powerflyer. I hope it was PowerComputing.
They were very helpful - Salvatore was his name.
If you got it from somewhere else, I hope they are as good.

Best of Luck,

Liz
