It was also discussed a while back that it was necessary to back out
of all fixpacks beyond 10 or 17 (can't remember which) before
installing Warp 4.0 as an upgrade over Warp 3.0. I had Warp 3.0 at
Fixpack 22 level, and installed Warp 4.0 as an upgrade and it was a
MESS. Finally got it working correctly, but when I attempted to
install the leaked Fixpack 1 for Warp 4.0, I had so many problems I
had to re-install Warp 4.0 on a formatted partition.
