The LINDY Console Switch will illuminate all of its front panel indicators to confirm that it is in upgrade mode.

3.On the computer that is connected to the LINDY Console Switch, ensure that its BIOS settings will allow it to boot from the floppy drive, rather than booting immediately from the hard drive.
