Something else to try.  I had a similar problem -- the solution, remove the
Everex EVGA card and replace it with a more "standard" video card.  In my 
case when I would stick in floppy and boot I would get a "booting unix"
message of some sort and then it  would go away, floppy light on all the time
but nothing else.  When I took out the EVGA card and replaced it with a
Paradise EGA card I started working....
