Re: Booting to floppy

    just my crazy suggestion, if you can't get the keyboard to work right
    for the rootdisk prompt, what about changing it to wait 10 or 15
    seconds for a rootdisk insertion and then continuing?  would that be
    difficult/messy to implement?

Well, the standard Mac way of doing things is the check the floppy status
and to read whatever gets inserted.  That, of course, assumes the floppy
hardware provides that information.  Actually, i wish the i386 installer
would do that, it would save alot of hassle.
