 That is the way the joystick buttons work (same as apple keys).  Don't
 push them when booting, or leave a book on them.  Problem solved :)

 Sounds like your system is continuously accessing your 5.25" drives, which
 is the only way it can tell if something is in these drives.  In the finder,

 GS/OS anyway, and they will magically appear in any 8bit program (such as
 copy ][+ etc.
