[Coco] DSKINI sounds

I get at most 1 or 2 slow long clicks/grinds and then just running sounds..

The FD-500 cart seems very unreliable, booting into DECB only one or
two out of three attempts, both with and without the modified MPI

I'm thinking it's dead, Jim - just not sure which bit

Any suggestions on how I can diagnose which part is toast?
