I will take my own 4040 and replace its chips with the DOS 1 versions to see
if this will work. I already saw that there are images available at FUNET so
if the system won't work again, I can check the ROMs. Only have to find a
way to check the 6530.

I'm not at home right now so I cannot check the manuals. The difference
between the 3040 and 4040 is the number of sectors on a some tracks.
Therefor I thought that I would find at least different images for these
machine, not only different DOS-versions.

I will dig up my 3040 (litterally :( ) to check the ROMs. I'll you know.

Groetjes, Ruud
