(entirely new here, so please forgive me if this is something obvious)
I just dumped the ROM from my Japanese WorkPad (30J), and the Mac version of
POSE (v2.1d29, the one that came with CW 6 Lite) wasn't able to complete a
boot using it - Bus Error. It also complained that the ROM has a bad
checksum, though I don't think that's a problem on my end since I
transferred it a second time just in case.
That the list of possible hardware configurations didn't include the WPJ may
also have something to do with it (I told it to be a IIIx with a Japanese
silkscreen, figuring that's the closest one.)
What would I need to do to get it functioning? There's some Japanese-OS
stuff sitting in flash, isn't there? I assume I'd need that...
