You can unban yourself if needed. It also sends me reports to investigate the ban.
DO NOT USE MOBILE / CGNAT DEVICES WHERE THE IP CHANGES CONSTANTLY!
At this time, it is unfortunately not possible to whitelist users when your IP changes constantly.
You may inadvertently get banned because a previous attack may have used the IP you are now on.
So I suggest people only use fixed IP address devices until I can think of a solution for this problem!

Atari 1040STFM failed on moving from 2 chip Rom into 6 chips.

The place to ask all those likely daft questions!

There’s no difference between the ROMs in all those systems and the language makes no difference.

Check that you have them in the right order and that the ROM image has been split correctly.
Intro retro computers since before they were retro...
ZX81->Spectrum->Memotech MTX->Sinclair QL->520STM->BBC Micro->TT030->PCs & Sun Workstations.
Added code to the MiNT kernel (still there the last time I checked) + put together MiNTOS.
Collection now with added Macs, Amigas, Suns and Acorns.

As @stephen_usher said, the ROMS make no difference.

Going by the pictures the ROMs are in the correct sockets, so it may be an issue with the images you've burned to them.

I've attached a zip file containing:
  1. ROMDUMP - A ROM imaging tool for TOS
  2. ROMSPLIT - A ROM splitting tool for TOS
  3. 6 ROM images created from TOS 1.04 English using the tools above on the HATARI emulator. They are in the ROMDUMP folder.
Here's the thing, I don't remember if the ROM images need to be byte swapped or not, but since you have UV erasable EPROMs, you have the option to create a set of images that are byte swapped and you can erase the ROMs you have and try both byte swapped and non byte swapped images to see if that makes a difference.

If neither work then it is very possible there is some other issue at play.

I presume you erased those ROMs prior to programming BTW? I'm only asking because with used ICs sometimes they aren't erased, or not erased for long enough.

Thanks everyone for help it finally worked with ROMs from rubber_johnny.

It seems that something went wrong during split of my ROM...

Finally my Atari speaks shakespeare's language ;)
