Thanks. I think it was the flip-flop on pin 2 that was hammering me.
I'm suddenly in the middle of a Tivoli TSM migration, but when things
cool off abit I'll try this.

I'll lookup the exact Teac jumpers but not only do you have to change
the two speed jumper but you must make sure pin 2 is grounded to
select the correct speed.

To make the Teac 1.2mb drive act like a QD drive there are two options:
Jumper I on, LG off, low on pin 2 of the 34 pin connector or Jumper I
on, LG on, high on pin 2 of the 34 pin connector. Well,
I found a couple of 3.5" drives that can be jumpered, and the
Altos doesn't recognize 'em at all. I suspect it wants a drive that
does DD only.
Wild guess. Pin 34 changed its definition at some point (IIRC it used to
be Rdy/, it bacame disk_change/). Maybe that's your problem.

Do you have the jumper settings for that? TEAC's documentation
drives me up the wall. I have an FD55GFR that I can make boot and
read,
The thing that really annoys me about the Teac documentation is that the
jumpers are not explained in the service manual (and on later drives
with
one big ASIC, you can't really work them out). OK, they're probably in
the OEM manaul, or something, but if all you have is the service manual,
that's not a lot of help...
