5.25" drive on IIgs



I've got an Apple IIgs with the Apple SCSI card in it and an external hard drive connected to that. I've installed 6.0.1 on the HD and the computer runs fine using the HD.

I also have a 3.5" drive which works in 6.0.1. If I insert a disk the OS picks up that a disk was inserted and mounts it. I just picked up a 5.25" drive and installed it on the system. However, 6.0.1 does not see it that I can tell. I thought maybe the drive was bad, but if I switch the boot disk to the Smart Port and reboot the IIgs with a bootable floppy in the 5.25" drive the system will boot to that disk.

As a precaution, I booted the 6.0.1 Installer and re-installed the Apple 5.25 driver. Still no luck after that.

Any ideas what is going on?
