I believe RomIdent uses a much longer string (16 digits?) to identify images than the four digits that checksum generators build. John :-#)# At 08:19 AM 5/8/2000 , Jon Raiford wrote:

Maybe RomIdent should just be updated to use either checksums. That way all fluke systems would be useful for identifying the roms. Of course, all of the roms would have to be fed into it to populate the database.

Hi John,

I've been a little slow with this one, since it doesn't apply to a Fluke 9100a system, but the checksum calculation is interesting :)

Can you email me a copy of the rom dump so I can have a look at it

Cheers

Chris
