You ever have a label peel and get the disk stuck in the drive? Seems like more work than just swapping.
There's a reason I don't immediately label these diskettes - a lot of the time I'm just moving drivers over, or doing something I will only be needing to do once - this computer is for sale. I don't want to soak diskettes in anything, either.
Turns out my labelled diskette I needed was on the balcony, which is a great place for it. 😊
I'll say one thing - for my own systems, I have everything labelled and put in diskette boxes in organized shelving. This time, I got some new diskettes from a prof and I mixed them in with my pile, somehow. I suspect my wife or kid may have had something to do with it... Anyways I knew ONE of them would boot, and so on the 5th try it did. It would take me more time to go to the other room, turn on my fastest booting computer, and then read the contents of the diskette than it did to put them in the drive and wait 5 seconds for each error.
I can assure you, Caluser2000, this is not a S.O.P. around here, but nor do I treat my hobby and side business with rigidity and ruthless efficacy - did you notice most of the work is done on the floor?
Come on man, it's fun, and I'm having fun, and I don't mind sharing my amusing results with the community.
Now, for plugging in power to outputs, yeah, go find that thread and ream me out for something proper. 🤣
