If you would like to work on it, your help would be welcome.  I plan to draw 
the schematic but it may be some time before I get to it.

I reassembled the board and the computer no longer crashes.  When it is 
activated with SYS 59904, the ROM displays the banner and attempts to boot the 
disk.  I have a disk but it is in poor condition.  I have not been able to try 
it yet because I need to repair the cables first.

Lee Davison did an initial disassembly of the ROM that is now linked from my 
page.  I have been working on it also.  The ROM contains code to read/write 
sectors and possibly the LOAD command.  The remaining functions are in RAM.

Regards,
Mike
