What hardware is needed in order to connect a RX02 to a PDP8/e? Is
it just the M8357 RX8E interface card, or is something else (data break?)
needed?
Can I boot an operating system from a PDP8/e with only a serial terminal
and a RX02?
While i'm at it, does anyone have a spare M8357?

No data break interface required.

You'll either need to toggle in a boot loader, or get one of those
diode matrix ROM cards suitably programmed.
