I created the following table to check the connections between the video rom and other components
Also checked the address and data lines connectivity to the cpu and copro
maybe someone can use this to check their board.
The Macintosh HD does show up when booted from floppy emu,
am able to open some of the folders but when I open the system folder the mac keeps searching a long time,
are there tools to check the disk?
progress
- replaced the 20 pin connector
- put the capacitors on the board and booted from the floppy emu
- treated the rust on he chassis
- booted using a floppy disk and with the floppy emu
the se/30 will not boot from the scsi hd, it starts to boot but after a while the question mark...
removed the 20 pin connector, ordered a new one.
there was more corrosion under the connector so best thing to replace it.
What do you recommend to seal the CPU holes with?
- replaced UE8 (and fixed some connections)
- replaced UK6 video rom socket
- made 2 wire connections from the video rom socket to J13
- burned a 27C64 eprom with the SE30 video rom
- cleaned up some more
- lubricated the disk drive
The SE/30 is working ! so the 68030 is still working...
i have to replace UE8, has too much corrosion, rest of the muxes seem ok.
the rom socket looks ok, with a magnifier I can see some black corrosion, have to figure out how to remove it
the rom did have corrosion on the upper half of the connection points , removed the corrosion using a fiber...
Got another SE/30 with leaking maxwell. This one has a different leak pattern while is was stored in an apple Macintosh bag on its back.
you can see the leakage dripping down to the ports on the back side of the board.
the video rom lost a number of legs
the 68030 has holes from the corrosion...
the following string in the ROM appears to be a list of programmers.
