This happens:

And no, the flash rom write enabler jumper is on. As a matter
of fact, there is now difference wether the jumper is on/off
or completely removed...

I tried this also with the firmware 5.3 cd-rom but same
things happened.
This was 5.5 with the floppyboot as you see.

Please help. I'll summarize if I get a working solution...
