Is there a option at the boot: prompt for this? does you bios allow you to boot for the second floppy ? if so then at the "boot:" prompt type "fd(1,a)/kernel". might be easier to open the case and reconnect the floppy ribbon cable. exchange the two connectors on the two floppy drives. /dev/fd0 will become /dev/fd1 and vice-versa.
