Hello

I recently recieved NeXTStep 3.0 and am trying to upgrade my old 68030
NeXT Cube but I seem to have run into a problem.  What happens is that
after I run UpgradePrep and reboot the computer it will successfully 
execute the rc scripts but  will hang at the very end with the error
message "loginwindw: could not find window server port!"

Here are the vital statistics of my setup:
	68030 NeXT Cube
	ROM revision 1.0 v3.7
	350 meg HD
	Optical Drive
	16 meg memory

Is there something different that needs to be done with the older cubes
when upgrading?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

						
						Thank You
