Help with Apple ][GS drive

I have 2 Apple ][GS.

My problem with one of them is that when it gets turned on it boots from the hard drive and wont recognize the floppy drives.

How do I switch it to boot from the floppys?

I USED to know how to do it, but havent touched by GS' in 7 years because they were in storage when I became homeless in 2001 and I finally got a place to live last year and am going thru all my old computers

Drives

It seems that either you have the slot with the drives set to your card. The HD should see them. You have to go into the control pannel, and make sure slot 5 is set to standards. That is a check by it. To get there hold the option key when booting up.
You also could have the boot up at the bottom of the control pannel set to boot the slot with the HD. You can set it to scan if the HD is in slot 7.
Hope this helps,

Take Care.
