I put up an image of the dump console session at
http://libsmtp.berlios.de/425e-rom.log.gz
The binary created with Michaels Perl script can be found at
http://libsmtp.berlios.de/425e-rom.bin.gz
I dumped 0x40000 bytes, which is enough to start going, I hope. I skimmed
through the binary with less and noticed some references to STI and SGC in
text strings. If you need more, just yell.
Ok, happy hacking. Bye,
Kevin
