floppy drive problem

Orange,
 
The drive's a standard 720k PC type - http://www.cpmspectre.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/hardware/ju363.htm
 
What have you got it connected up to? Is it for DF0 or other?
 
If it's for DF0 then you should be able to get it to work using the old 'floppy cable with the twisted cores and diode' trick.

Orange,
 
I've never owned an A2000 - so what I'm about to say may be b*ll*x....
 
..... if the 3.5 floppy is an Amiga floppy and the A2000 supports two internal drives, then the drives should work as you've jumpered them.
 
But - afaik - the floppy cable doesn't have twist in it. If yours has the twist, then it's probably off an IBM based system.
 
Also, the A2000 may have an onboard jumper that enables support for the DF1: as an internal drive as opposed to having an external DF1: connected to the disk drive port.
