Ken:
 
I'm scratching my head a bit on this one.  If I understand this
correctly, you had an Express 3 tape set (Powerpatch + SUBSYS),
and additional SUBSYS tape containing applications not on the
Express 3 set, and the Linkeditor patch.  If that's right, I'd
think the correct (effecient) order would have been:
 
   o  Linkeditor patch
   o  Add-on SUBSYS
   o  Express 3 Powerpatch & SUBSYS
 
Of course, your way should work, but involves a couple more
installations.  And I can understand that you might have been
confused, because our installation directions aren't clear when
the situation is as complicated as yours (multiple patch tapes
and multiple SUBSYS tapes) -- does this sort of thing happen
often?
