I thought about the libs problem between the 2 OS's for awhile also John,
but didn't come up with any viable solution. You might think that you can
get away with it by creating a libs: directory on a shared partition and
using an assign, but what about the system specific libraries. Since some
of them share the same names with their 1.3 counterparts, then you can't
have both the 1.3 and 2.0 version in the same directory. So during the time
I was using 1.3 & 2.0 I had a copy of the non-system specific libraries in
both libs directories. I think you will find that 2.0 will shortly become
your favorite OS, and the 1.3 partition will disappear. I found that most
of the stuff that wouldn't run on 2.0 wasn't worth using anyway.
