[sebhc] Image transfer problems

[Dwight K. Elvey]

Hi
 If you try to dump from a programmer, make sure
to disconnect the VPP or if your programmer lets
you, set it to 5v. If you disconnect, wire it
to +5v. I've not found the magic combination
to do the full dump but I was able to get the
XCON8 half with the generic 2732 setup and
VPP set to +5V. I've made up a test socket
to play with these pins to see what addressing
they do that is different than the EPROM. The
mask ROMs often swap selects with address lines.
It might even be the VPP pin that is A11. The
A11 pin seems to be a select pin on the ROM I
have. I just haven't had time to play with it yet.
