Copy the files onto a CF/PCMCI card, then put them onto a hard drive and run them from there, I don't think you need the files on an Actual CD, I think I have memorys of installing it from files...

In fact I've got 3.9 installed on my e-uae, and I never could work out how to attach a CD to that, so it must have been possible.

The Boing Bags need the CD though...

Maybe there's a way to assign the CF card as a CD0: but I think I failed the last time I tried that.

Also I should mention I do own a copy of both 3,5 and 3.9, so it's not piracy of the highest order or something.
