I really wish that more people (like myself) knew about these dangers. All I assumed was that it wouldn't be a good idea to "hot-swap" the A9M0107 to a Mac that was already under power.
Are you serious? Will it really juice your floppy controller or something? I had it connected to my SE/30 booted from 6.0.8 floppy and all that happened was that the A9M0107 couldn't successfully initialize a disc I gave it. All that would happen is it would ask me to either Eject or Init. I would choose init and the drive would spin up and then say that the disc is write protected. (despite my putting tape on the disk) I can dig up an LC with the ][e card in it if this is the only way- But does the group think that I would be better off trying to do this in Linux?
