Bill,
Let me know if you need a copy of this. Thanks again for the C4P boot
disks. The C4P-MF is coming along nicely. The power supply checks out
and I'm pulling every socketed chip and reseating it during the
cleaning.
So far, I've found 5 chips with pins broken down inside the sockets.
Fortunately, I was able to remove the pins from the sockets.
Now I just need to pick-up some replacement 8T26 bus driver/receivers
and then check all of those 2114s on the two 527 Ram boards and I'll
be ready to fire this thing up. :)

Great to hear. Again, I hope that the disks survived the
trips through the airport metal detectors and that our
drives are aligned close enough for them to work. I have
a fairly large stash of untested 2114s if you can't find
any locally. Remember, you can always start out with only
one 527 board to see how things are going.
