Re: IIx startup woes..

Hi again, more trobleshooting...

Can anyone tell me which locations the eprom files are for?

I've burnt a set from the images here. All except for the cmikbd, as this seems to run fine, 
displays 'power on'.

The eproms on the cpu control card, easy, f8l in location d 5.6 and q9f0 in location c5.6..

The eprom label on my floppy controller is scratched off, can I assume this is the 
'floppycm' eprom?

The two labelled 2.090 and 2.09e, are these for the cmi 28 card, slot 2? This unit has two 
eproms on that card labelled 'mon 11/10 O' and 'mon 11/10 E' both are 2764's. I've left 
the originals in.

Well the q9fo eprom was bad when I tested it against the image file here, so hopefully 
that's cleared another fault, also my floppy card eprom didn't match any of the files here, 
so it's erased and  'floppycm' burnt to it, tested ok in the burner. My floppy card is a 
'QFC9 rev5'. The f8lmrk5 eprom from my unit checked fine against the file here, so I can 
assume the files are good, has anyone else used the eprom images here to make a fresh 
set?

Anyway she's still not booting, but the display has changed to a solid green screen now, 
no more lines. Progress? I guess so!
