sbl2e series compatibility

I could undertake a study of schematics and parts and pinouts, or I could simply ask here if anybody already has the answer. I spent a lot of time getting my SBL2e code just right. Can I simply pop it into an SBL2e X or XA?

Exactly which signals, and voltage levels (think ttl vs rs-232) are you using or need? Although the code will run, the pin-out is what matters most.

The code will be doing i/o on uart0, and output only on uart1. As long as uart0 is the same resource and pins on the X, and uart1 pins at most won't hurt anything... On the other hand, on the X uart1 is somehow steered to other pins on the single DB9 connector, so perhaps the right thing to do is take the changes I made to the SBL2e default application source code, and do the same changes to the SBL2e-X default application source code. Otherwise I'll have stuff in the configuration html files that just won't apply, or make sense anyway, on the SBL2e-X, and maybe just won't work.
It was just a thought....
