Alfa data boot selector installation

Can someone smarter than me see if I've installed the boot selector correctly?

Also, does anyone know if this actually switches the external drive to df0, or does it simply just switch the boot sequence so df1 boots first?

I don't know the boot selector, but don't you need to install the original CIA chip on top of it?

Yes, you're right. I was showing without the chip so someone could confirm that I got the orientation right.

The silkscreen print shows where pin 1 is located, so it should match the socket and the IC.

It switches the external drive to answer to the select signal for DF0.
