[time-nuts] HP 5373 rom images

[Mark Sims]

I downloaded the HP 5372A ROM images from Dieder's site,  programmed them into 27C010's,  installed them on a 5372A CPU board...  no joy.   System does not boot.   The status lights on the CPU board flash for a while,  then stop with the left three LEDs lit.

I tried the W9 ROM size jumper in both positions (it is labeled 512K/2M) and it does the same thing.  Has anybody tried to use those ROM images?  Geraldo,  are you sure all the ROMs are 128Kx8 (HP part number 1818-4060)?  The 5372A has 4 512Kx8 (HP part number 1818-3825) and 4 128Kx8 (HP part number 1818-3825) ROMs.
