I've heard of a hardware device that will allow you to set floppy drive assignments to whatever you want, but can't find anything in a search.  

I have an A2500 with both internal floppy bays taken up with a flash card drive and floppy emulator, but no way to boot from real disks.  I want to use an external floppy drive to do this.  Has anyone heard of this before?    

Thanks!

Chris


Hold both mouse buttons to get into the early startup menu and select DF1/DF2 as the boot device.  Assuming you aren't using KS1.3 or below that is.

This might be an easy solution... I really only want to boot from the external drive for games that run on KS1.3 (I have a ROM switcher).   Why didn't I know about this boot menu before??  lol


The boot menu is only available on KS2.0 and above.
