Rob,
I'm assuming the 'external floppy frame' is essentially the guts from
an external Amiga floppy drive. You can't just connect a bare drive to the
external drive port without a couple chip's worth of glue logic. If you
are in fact using an old Amiga external drive, the other thing to check is
the drive address jumpers. When a drive is internal, the drive's address
is set to either 0 or 1… external drives are all set to 0. The cable is
wired to daisy chain the addresses.
