Try reversing the cable to the drive (pin 1 at
the wrong side). At
least that's what happened to mine... Now it apparently works.
The mainboard does not have a floppy controller, so I use an SCSI floppy
drive, it is working with a floppy disk inserted. >

That's not the floppy. It should be
"/dev/fd0".
Would be nice, to have this enumeration.. but does not work
for SCSI and
USB floppy disk drives, but it works for my optical and streamer device
/dev/sr? / /dev/st?.
Telcontar:~ # mount -v /mnt/floppy
mount: /dev/fd0 is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: /dev/fd0 mounted on /mnt/floppy.
