The X68000 comes with 2 floppy drives, and supports up to 4 (the limit of the FDC). Most games will only assume there are two though, but generally you can put the first two disks in the first two drives. Any disk labelled "System" is likely to be the bootable disk, so start with the system disk and data 1, and if it wants you to change a disk, it will tell you.
