    NaomiDIAG : A diagnostic bios for Naomi 1 & 2

    Is there a list of problems most likely to cause an all red screen? I've got two that do this, haven't had a chance to hook up serial yet to see if they output anything.

    NaomiDIAG : A diagnostic bios for Naomi 1 & 2

    I've got a motherboard that refuses to read cartridges, so if there was some way to do a bus check, maybe of the 27c322/160 on the cartridge that would be very useful.
