Yes it is possible. This group really needs an FAQ :) From my past post: "You can jumper pins 25/26 on the floppy drive connector on the motherboard (it's the /TRK0 sense pin which tells the Emax the drive head is on Track 0). Once you do this, you'll be able to boot the Emax with no floppy drive attached." -Dave On Sun, Dec 27, 2009 at 3:15 PM, peter_vh01 <petervh@gmail.com> wrote: > > > Hello everyone, > > I'm wondering if it is possible to boot an Emax 1 without a floppy drive > installed.
