First error was IBM PC DD Interface config -> it was a shugart one which was detected by the missing PIN 3.
Second error was the flipped ribbon cable.

Now it works! I have only tested drive 0 but I think second drive will work too. I have only 1 cable at the moment.

Thank you for developing this emulator.

Stay healthy. I wish you all the best.
Thanks !

Yes the reverted floppy ribbon is a common mistake. I should add the bad floppy ribbon connection autodetection in this firmware.
