Did you use a donor ROM, or did you carve the missing piece out of the second BOOTFW container?

2nd container has a different version, so likely not working with current FW in sa. So yes, i picked the code piece from a donor. Interestingly there was another byte that required correction, perhaps a reading error?

Yes, I saw they were different versions, but I found some code that looked identical in the second container, at least at the beginning. After checking again, it turned out to be a false impression.

SN matches, so rom is likely native, then my suspect is either preamp or heads. Better not power it up anymore before confirming, or replacing MHA.
