missing ROM board by installing an EEPROM into the empty socket on the CPU
board. I did have to jumper a couple of address lines to the EEPROM and
perhaps tweak the

Based off of that, I did similar, and documented it here:

Hi
A *lot* of errors on the 5370’s (A or B) can be traced to a couple of fairly
simple issues:
1) Connectors and sockets. Simple un-plug and plug back in may solve the
problem (at least for a while).
2) The power supply. The parts are pretty common, so it’s a fairly easy fix.
3) Alignment.

Are the known good eprom images available somewhere? I would like
to refurbish my 5370A over the holidays. It still seems to work but has
at least some bad contacts in the backplane from time to time.

Currently at $49.95 plus shipping.
It's showing a ROM error (7.7) on startup. I asked what the error was this
morning and they posted pictures this afternoon. It could be a candidate
for one of John Seamons' 5370 processor replacement boards assuming nothing
else is wrong.
