Ok, am I doing something wrong ... reads disks ok with dip 1 on all off but when i turn dip 2 on to enable df1 it then has problems, asks to re insert the name of df0 part way through loading. Anyone know what i am doing wrong?

It is a feature of the Amiga.

Can you give a concrete example?

Dips 1 and 2 on .... attach wb on slot 1 df0. Boot and part way through loading workbench it then asks you to insert the workbench disk. Turn jumper 2 off and it boots fine. With jumper 2 on the amiga shows df1 when you hold the 2 buttons down.

Not sure what you mean by "its a feature of the amiga"

For me:
Dip1 = df0
Dip6 = df1
