Wonderful! I would kindly request on behalf of others that you dump the
EPROM even if it is a different 2.x version, because 2.9 is the only
one that seems to be available on the web. These old boot images seem
to be at risk of becoming lost media. I'm happy to upload it to the
Internet Archive if you don't want to do that yourself. :)
