Hello
You have to twist pin 10 and 12 on the 34-pin floppy connector to change
driveselect signals.
You can (as Maarten already said) put a jumper over pin 33 and 34 on the
motherboard of de computer and connect the flatcable on the other
motherboard connector. You also have to disconnect pin 34 somewhere in the
flatcable
