So I picked up an XD88 in 2021. The unit has had a bad PS so I've not been able to do much until this past weekend. I figured out a easy way to bypass the PS and feed it +5&+12V using disk drive power connectors(the super common 4pin connector). Now I con confirm it starts up and clears the screen and begins looking for a boot drive.20230523_103539.jpg I don't have a keyboard so I can't interact with the console. I'm pretty sure the dip switch setting will allow me to connect via RS-232. Does anyone have documentation about the dip switch settings on these units? Also I could also use a disk image or install media as I'm without either.

If you're reading this you may be interested in m88k stuff. I've begun work on a Ghidra processor definition here: https://gitlab.com/mk2s/ghidra-processor-m88k
