Boot selector (DF0/DF1) {For A500}

Boot selector (DF0/DF1) {For A500} I'm looking to buy an internal boot selector/ floppy controller for switching between DF0 and DF1.

It has to have an analog switch!

Examples:

http://www.bigbookofamigahardware.co...t.aspx?id=1708

So if you have one sitting on a shelf collecting dust, sell it to me!

why you want a boot selector or boot from DF1 ?
if your DF0 is damaged or does not read floppies very well is easiest to replace it

It is for an internal floppy and an external-port connected internal HxC

I managed to get the hxc recognised as df1 via bootselector before with a lot of expert help from demolition but the bootselector I had back then was with push button and you really didn't know in what possition it was in wich made it difficult to errortrack. I didn't want to hack it as it was sold to me as nos.. With this analog I hooe we can get it working

Pull out CIA chip, insert boot selector in CIA socket, insert CIA in boot selector socket, drill a hole in the case for the switch. :-)

I was asking only that Troels post here to let us know whether he was eventually successful or not.
