Hi Mike,
Thats a strange experience. I don't have a floppy in my BP6, the
closest I've got is a LS120 drive on the secondary slave. I've disabled the
onboard FDC to save an IRQ (although I'm not sure its made much
difference). I've had no problems booting, possibly the bios still thinks
there is a 1.44 floppy configured to be the A drive and it is looking for
that before it starts its boot sequence.
Cheers
Dave Cheney
