You need to check the number on the chip. It will end in -09 or -11

There are only problems with the -09 buster if you use Zorro3 cards. I use a
gvp HC8+ scsi -controller (with 4.13 rom) which is the same as the 4008
without problems. Even with a Zorro3-card next to it (CyberVision with slow
buster jumper set)
