I have a Zenith 151 which I am trying to install a 720K floppy
in.  I believe I have the jumpers on the drive set correctly,
andI have the jumpers on switch set 1, numbers 5 and 6,
set to ONE drive, not two. ( I was told that it must be set to
one floppy, not two, in order to fool it into using the drive).

I then installed driver.sys (device=driver.sys /d:1 /f:2), but it
still won't read/write to the drive.  Has anyone gotten a 720K
floppy to work on a Z151?  Or does anyone have ideas on how it
could be done?

Thanks in advance...
