        The ROMs go like this:

        31...24 23...16 15...8 7...0

        --- jump code --------------- 2004.0000
        SYS_TYPE (0400.0000) 2004.0004
        VERS VERS VERS VERS 2004.0008 (same in each EPROM)
        0x03 0x02 0x01 0x00 2004.000C

        Sadly I don't have a printset so I cannot pin
        it down much better than this. The chances are
        high that the ROMs go in order with the Exx numbers
        assigned to each slot, so you only have to
        decide increasing or decreasing order.

        Normally I would whip the top off a machine
        and just tell you which ones go where but this
        is a uv2000 we are talking about here ... :-)
