Here is a kit to replace the old 5.25" with a 3.5". No muss no fuss just put it in.

Hi Kevin,

I haven't tried to make a EII+HD boot from a 3�" drive but the EII+HD will boot from the 5.25" floppy if the disc is insertet at bootup. With a compatible 3�" floppy you should be able to boot from the floppy too. Therefore, you need to find a compatible DS/DD floppy drive like a TEAC 3.5" drive FD235HF-A529. Furthermore, you need to set the correct jumpers on the drive. Ask Rob at Emulator archive for the jumpersetting schematic. At last, you need to be able to copy the operating system to the 3�" floppy by formatting the floppy to be able to boot from it.

I hope this helps

Brian

  I recently placed a 3.5 drive into my EII + HD and it does not boot 
  from the 3.5 it will try to load but it will just prompt OS version 
  and never complete the load. If I boot without a disk in the drive it 
  will load fine from the hard drive then when I try to format a 3.5 it 
  will prompt me through until it needs to read the OS from the drive 
  then it trys to spin the drive but nothing happens eventully it will 
  return the error cannot read floppy. I have tried several different 
  os disks. Is this a disk addressing issue ? Has anyone ever got a 3.5 
  to work with a EII + HD ? please let me know how you did if possable.
