It could be a variety of things, but it sounds like the problem started
with a bad controller board for the Unidisk 3.5.  Whatever it did, it
took out some signifcant chips, and could have lunched ROM, RAM, the CPU,
or any of the support chips.  You may be able to diagnose a specific
ROM or RAM problem by typing "control-closedapple-reset", and let the
machines internal diagnostice give it a try.  Regardless, it sounds like
the machine is in serious need of a good service rep, and take the
Unidisk and controller board too.
