At the risk of getting extremely tiresome (if anyone has noticed..)

This is my third attempt at getting some help on upgrading from v1.0 to
v3.0. Everytime I post, something happens to our news server and I never
get to see the hordes of replies. Please e-mail me.

So far, with the help of some kind netters, I finally have the contents
of the floppy with the CD-ROM Tools. When the nearest 2.88 stiffy is 
thousands of km away, this was no mean feat. 

The UpgradePrep.app will not run under my 1.0 system. The message I get is
UpgradePrep failed (Bad executable (or shared library))

What do I do now? Basically, I have an old '030 cube (that will not boot off
the CD-ROM which it does not recognise as a device) with an OD and 1.0.
THAT IS IT! I have the CD-ROM with what I think is the correct cable and
I have a CDC SCSI drive on which I want to build a system.

If I sound desperate... I AM... I also feel very lonely out here in the styx.
Thanks in advance for any help.
