Actually I want to use it with a C= 1581 drive, but that requires converting it the same way as to an Amiga drive.

HERE is the board.

I am using THIS guide. It appears my drive has a different board than what is described. Also I can't seem to open the IFF file, maybe it is corrupt? If you can view the image, please convert the IFF to GIF or JPG? I'd appreciate it.

How to change this drive to DS0 instead of DS1? I can swap pin 2 and 34 on the cable if need be, but drive select seems to be the issue..

HELP!  :-?


 If you are using an external case, the drive must be set as DS1, anyway. For use it as DS0 (and you are unable to find the right jumper), maybe there is a time to use the very ugly cable torsion instead. Simply open the floppy cable connector and twist the pins 10 and 12 (11 is GND, so it don't matter).
Goodbye people.

I\'ll pop on from time to time, RL is acting up.
