This wasn't working, even though the Xmodem CKCKCK bits were showing. 
I was finally able to get it to take the (correct) load by jumping 
P12, which caused it to display the Xmodem CKCKCK bits at power on.

Now it boots up, but stops at POST saying CONFIGURE UNIT. Looking 
through the list archives reveals that it has lost it's internal 
serial number and I need a hash code.

Dadgummit. :-(
