Boot TS - System Stops Booting Floppy Disk, Boots Hard Disk

Explanation: The floppy disk drive starts to boot and then stops, with the system then going to the hard disk.

Diagnosis: This normally happens only if the floppy disk isn't in the drive. If it happens and the disk is inside the drive, there is probably something wrong with the drive or the disk.

Recommendation: Troubleshoot the floppy drive. The hard disk boot process will continue here, if you want to follow it.
