You're right, thanks for the info.

So, Ishar 1 and 2 for Falcon are definitly OK.

IIRC the Falcon only supported one floppy drive, so TOS 4.0x was only
able to deal with one floppy drive, even if you somehow managed to
attach a second one. Maybe it's somehow possible to teach TOS 4.0x that
it should support a second drive, too (via TOS patches?), but we
certainly do not do that in Hatari yet.
