I have uploaded a couple of pictures. Look at my image gallery.

These are not great quality, I took them with a camera phone. I wanted to show the status of the project. Not much has changed. As long as I have only the one drive, everything works correctly. But when I add a second drive, either floppy or serial drive, ProDOS fails to boot. I am again tracing ProDOS boot sequences to see where it fails. I do not know what else to do.

almost done with the G3 project

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.
