   As of 19 Jan 06, I have to clear up the memory jumpers. They can be placed across two headers, not just one. So any pair of jumpers on this outline can have more than four combinations... My brain hurts...

Floppy Controller
   Supports 360K, 1.2M, 720K and 1.44MB drives. Transfer rates are 250K or 500K, so it cannot support 2.88MB. Don't try it.

Parallel Port 
Parallel port follows IBM conventions, IRQ7 only and swapped LPT1 and LPT2. It can be set up as Compatible (ouptut only) or Extended mode (bidirectional).
LPT   Data     Status   Control
 1    03BCh    03BDh    03BEh
 2    0378h    0379h    037Ah
 3    0278h    0279h    027Ah

S1 Memory Card Definition Switch (also P103)
   Now to figure out which switch is what... Looks as if these bits have some sort of logical operation performed on them, there is no direct correlation between bits 3-2 and 1-0 that is apparent.
  I did find S1, but it is not labled, and it feeds some logic chips.

Bit 7 - 2MB/8MB Card installed. 0 = 8MB card

Bit 4-6 - Reserved = 1

Bits 3-2 Memory Card in second connector
   Bit 3    Bit2
      0      0     Invalid
      1      0     Memory card in second connector
      1      1     No card in connector 2

Bits 1-0 Memory Card in first connector
   Bit 1    Bit0
      0      0     Invalid
      1      0     Memory card in first connector
      1      1     Invalid (of course, mem1 is always used!)

S2 Memory Definition Switch
   Not seen a real name, so I guessed.
Pin   Name           Description
 1    2/4 Banks      One card ON, Two cards OFF
 2    LIM Enable     Lotus-Intel-Microsoft extended memory LEAVE OFF
 3    Non-Page Mode  OFF use paged memory ON disable paged memory
 4    Fast Mode      What? LEAVE ON
 5    N/C            What? LEAVE OFF
 6    N/C
 7    N/C
 8    256K/1MB       256K simms ON, 1MB simms OFF 

   My guesses for valid configurations. It looks that the memory controller cannot handle mixed simms, unlike our beloved PS/2s. As the memory is interleaved, all eight sockets on each card need to be filled.
       2MB     4MB    8MB   16MB
Card1  256k    256k   1MB    1MB
Card2   No     256k    No    1MB
Banks   2       4      2      4

L2 cache is organized as two banks (A and B) of 4k double words.
Cache hits, DRAM or bank, returned with 0 wait states.
Cache miss with page hit is returned with 2 wait states.
Cache miss with page miss is returned with 4 wait states.
