Oh, well

Come to find out, the issue with the floppy is not the floppy at all. The system will refuse to boot ProDOS whenever there are two storage devices. I have a total of three storage devices, LPC ROM, HDT file located on a PC using a serial port, and the floppy. I have been using the LPC disk for booting. I tried a test, I booted using the LPC drive and I disabled the floppy. But the PC was connected and the ROM for the serial port was present. It failed to boot just like with the floppy. I then booby trapped the ROM for the serial port to see if any code was executed, and it was not.

as i have posted on the forum, i am going to be taking my AIO's contents and throwing them into a Beige G3 MiniTower. I am just testing some things, should i need to do some unexpected stuff.

This is the Sled out of the AIO running on a compaq PSU:

This is the rocker switch on the PSU that has to be pushed for the system. Note: this means there is no softpower, yet....

From AIO to minitower. The body switch identity crisis
