Apparently the changes by 1991 included tools added to the ROM 03 firmware which are not present in the ROM 03 binary I have. Was there newer releases of ROM 03 firmware in systems that were sold? I am wading through the source trying to decide what belongs and what got left out. The notes indicate the changes were made to incorporate System 6.0.1. I am having fun mapping out the firmware and putting it all together. I will share my findings eventually. If this is documented somewhere already, let me know.
