Bought "100% working" A500, Floppy header hacked up
I recently bought an A500 board off ebay auction to replace a DOA board. When it arrived, I noticed that someone had hacked the crap out of the floppy drive header on the motherboard. It looks like they cut three traces as well as soldering a broken header pin together.. I thought maybe someone might know why the previous owner might do this, as it is definitely intentional. Is this some known hack, or is this just a PO going crazy with a razor knife?

I haven't checked the pin connections, but perhaps a DF0/DF1 swap?
