Totally fucked in what way?
Skate sent me some zero pics to try for netbooting and cf. I tried em both, and still got errors and black screens, so I sent him my netdimm and CF to test
this was the his diagnosis:
and this was his test of the CF:skate323k137 said:Looking like the DIMM. I took the Netboot PIC I sent you and put it in one of my dimms, it works fine. On your dimm I get error 33 / gateway not found
I even hooked up serial debugging http://wiki.arcadeotaku.com/w/Sega_Naomi_DIMM_board_and_GD-ROM#DIMM_board_serial_interface
Everything outputted to the console matches that wiki, and the CRC check comes back good too.

I took a good hour or two testing Mugi's hardware. I couldn't really get any sign of life out of the CF reader even after being sure the splitter cable had good voltage and trying a couple of my own good DIMM boards.
The dimm itself is probably suffering from (at least) bad connections between the main and option board. I cleaned the pins, re-seated, but to no avail. The connectors are clean and all look fine, but even with a good PIC, it still kept getting error 33 in netboot mode as if no PIC was inserted.
Here's the serial console output with the jumpers in GD-ROM mode and the CF reader hooked up; it still shows ethernet being enabled and GD-ROM disabled.
Here's the netboot output: identical to my DIMM that works and doesn't crash with error 33
Anyway, someone hook this dude up with a working DIMM at least.

LOL yes plz!!!!
I might be able to hook you up, I gotta see how many I have, but I am sure I have a spare. I will check and let you know this weekend, gotta get it from my storage unit. Man I gotta start taking better inventory of the stuff in storage.
