Thanks for your reply! I've just done the two dump and rather than 
attaching them to this email, I've uploaded them to my webspace: 
http://www.power-revolution.de/roms.zip

As far as I can see this, they seem to be complete. I hope they will 
help and that it could work somehow

greetings

Stefan
