[comp.sys.atari.st] installing mwc C 3.0 on 1040ST with 1 ds/dd drive

btb@ncoast.UUCP (Brad Banko) (08/29/88)

i would appreciate hearing about experiences with installing 
mwc C 3.0 upgrade on a 1040 ST system with 1 ds/dd drive (and NO
hard drive).  my current version is 2.0.1.  the v3.0.1 upgrade program
doesn't seem to be able to handle a 1 drive system.
	thanks.

I have been using MWC on a i ds/dd system since I got MWC v1.0.  I (like you
must) use a 512K, bootable RAM disk (boy that bootable RAM disk makes Desk
Accessory programming almost pleasant!).  I had no trouble installing 3.0.6
from the install program.  I was using v2.1 though.  I suggest that you give
them a call.  They have a toll-free (like all REAL software vendors should)
support line.  The number is 1-800-692-1700.  They are very helpful, and if
you need a newer version (I have not heard of v3.0.1), they will send one out
free in all probability.  They really do have the best compiler around!
