I'm almost finished putting my Miniboard together, and I have the following
questions:

1)  There is a block of 4 holes labeled  Rxd  GND  Txd  that I don't seem
    to have a component for.  What is supposed to go here?  (Yes, I checked
    the parts list.  I don't have any left over.)

2)  There is a hole labeled 12.5 XIRQ PGM.  This is apparently the place to 
    apply voltage when writing to the EEPROM.  What sort of connector should
    I use here?  I thought of using a single pin from a male or female header
    strip, but that looks fragile.  What was intended to go here?

3)  Has anyone written an assembly program to test the Miniboard?  I really
    am not looking forward to debugging code, an assembler, a downloader, and
    a board all at once.


Any help or advice would be greatly appriciated.

Thanks,
Jim
