I went back to my drives and found that one D9060 contained a 300515-001 rev B
as opposed to the rev A in the other two.  I have been trying to upload the
image, but I just can't get into ftp.funet.fi.  The most obvious difference
is a new initial byte, 0x98.  Once the data is re-aligned, I don't think
there's 1% difference.

I'll get it in there eventually.

OTOH, my ROM programmer seems to *hate* TI 2564's.  I tried three sets with
no success.  I know the drives work.  Sigh.

Besides this, today was a good day.  I'm resucing a 4016 that comes up with
good video and random character trash on the screen, but no other signs of
life.  It's mine for the shipping from CA to OH.  I've enough parts to fix
it including a spare MB (new in the factory box) if it comes to that.

Now... on to disassembly of the drive ROMs.
