I just wanted to post this little bit about Canon, because you rarely see people go on and on about something GOOD that a company has done. Canon has treated us very well. I like my PowerShot A60 and can now continue to use it.

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.

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.

My AIO is having an identity crisis, and has decided to go thru a body change operation. As you have seen, i have been buying parts for a G3 minitower Project. So far, i have on order is a Tower, and a Bezel and Wings card for a desktop. I received my MUCH needed DB15 to HD15 adapter today in the mail. For only $6.53 USD Shipped off of eBay.
