err, i dont know *what* you are reading, but I read the instructions fine.

copy 68060.library to libs:
copy libs:68040.library to libs:68040old.library (for orig. C= 040 if you
have it)
copy libs:68040dummy.library to libs:68040.library
copy libs:68040new.library to libs:68040new.library

...from memory. anyhow, the long and short of it is that 060 gets copied
straight over, there are *2* files with 040 in them..a very small one, which
gets copied as 868040.library and a bigger one which gets copied over as
68040new.library (and is called by the small 'dummy' library)

how that helps
