I did the slow dump from c800:0 and here's what I found:
- The only strings I saw are copyright, disk failure, and boot error
strings.
- Around c800:07a0, I run into a mass of zeroes.
- Just before c800:1000, I find the string "The remainder of this ROM is
unused."
- c800:1000 is loaded with FF.
- c800:2000 and on is loaded with E8.
