Chinon FB-354 Floppy on Amiga 500
I got a Chinon FB-354 Floppy Drive from an Atari ST and put this on my Amiga 500. The drive is modified as I can see. So, on the Amiga 500, when you turn the computer on, it tries two times to find a disk inside the floppy (but there is no disk inside) and then go to the HAND LOGO screen. If you put the disk, it won't load. But, if let the disk inside and restart the Amiga, the drive will read it perfectly. I think I need to enable the disk change on this floppy. Any idea where it is? I tried to find some info on the internet but nothing. Only for FB-357. Thanks!
Those are the modifications that are on the drive: ![]() |

Ah, that's because it was from an Atari ST and had been hacked accordingly.
The ST uses the write protection sensor in lieu of the real diskchange signal. |
