Hi,

I'm trying to get my 486SLC up and running in my A3000. I've installed the board, a trident vga card and the monitor master and all works ok. With cpu nocache I can get the board to boot ok. But I'm now struggling to get ms-dos 6.22 going on the on-board floppy. I've copied the 6.22 boot disk to a 1.44mb floppy using a pc but the GG just states 'Not a system disk' or something similar when trying to access FD1. I'm not sure if the pc floppy is working correctly because pin 5 on the floppy controller is missing!

It'd be simpler getting a set of ms-dos and win3.11 720k disks so I could just use the 3000's internal floppy.... so does anyone have ms-dos 6.22 on floppy and wouldn't mind uploading them as img files to the zone!?
