   Swap the drives in the case, mess with the EPROM on the controller
card, or other fairly technical stuff. [On the Apple //c, it's fairly
easy; the //e never had that]

   Once you boot off drive 1, you can access drive 2 by tacking a ',D2'
(no 's) to the end of DOS commands like CATALOG, LOAD, SAVE, etc.
