I did't think this would work until he has a real 4.1.1 and he can't
get by the buildworld right now.
He does have the 4.1.1 CDROM and he could fdimage the floppies on it
to get a 4.1.1 sysinstall at boot.

I'm sorry but I seem to be going around in circles. If I do a 'make' using
my current system (3.3), that will be incorrect for installing 4.1.1, true?
But your final comment is the one I'm trying to see. As I asked in my prior
message, if I 'fdimage' each of the '.flp' files and begin the installation
with the 'kern.flp' disk, will it at some point show me the 'sysinstall'
screens to do an upgrade?
