Enter the IIgs's "Slots" Control Panel (type open_apple-control-escape
almost any time the IIgs is on).  Is slot 5 set to "Your Card" or is
it set to something like "Built-in disk controller"?  Switch it off of
"Your Card" if necessary, and remember, press "return" to save the
setting changes, not "escape" :)
