Don –
The J301 jumper is definitely installed. As for the jumpers on the
floppies, well, gee, how I wish some information on them was included in the
installation guide! Here's what I can tell you: comparing the factoryinstalled
DF0: to the dealer-supplied DF1:, only two jumpers are different. Looking from
the back (plug end) of the drive, and assuming the tw "columns" are numbered
from left-to-right, starting at zero, then column 8 (last one) has a jumper on
DF0:, and column 7 has none, while on DF1:, column 7 has the jumper, and 8 has
none. Also, in DF0:, column 5 is jumpered, accross both rows of the column.
However, on DF1:, a jumper crosses columns 5 & 6, accross the bottom (closer to
plug) row. Can you tell me if this is correct-and, if not, what is? I'd
certainly be glad to hear that this is relatively easy to fix!
