Welcome aboard thirdgen.org.

I moved your post to its own thread. You were basically starting from scratch rather than picking up where the thread where you posted left off.

See the sticky in the top section of this forum about big block swaps. There's no one single answer, so look through what it says and decide what you're going to do. I'm not sure I've heard of any BBC into a 3rd gen yet that didn't involve some hair loss.
