But what if you just want to install 3.0 on one disk while keeping 2.0
intact on another disk? Considering the reports of Icon, WriteNow etc
breaking under 3.0, it's quite useful to still have 2.x around. The
installation procedure shouldn't be so slanted towards _replacing_ 2.x.

Ideally what I'd like is to have as many files as possible shared by
symbolic links between my 2.0 and 3.0 disks.

Having said that, I must congratulate NeXT on a beautifully simple
upgrade procedure. Swings and roundabouts I guess.
