David,
I believe the jumper really just toggles the autoboot setting of the
controller. Prior to 1.3 a hard drive could not autoboot so the manufacturers
built in some hack to enable it to do so. As of Kickstart 1.3 this is no longer
needed and a 'normal' autoboot ROM takes care of it. This (jumper set to 1.3)
should work with 2.x/3.x as well without a problem.
Did the drive fail to boot as soon as you put in the 2.04 ROM (i.e. before
installing the new Workbench)?
Cheers,
