Need MKR Zero ILI9488 8-bit parallel driver

Official Hardware MKR Family MKR Zero

Moving question to Using Arduinos > Displays (which gets more foot traffic) and closing the post here on the MKR Zero specific board.

The big question: has anyone successfully run an ILI9488 8-bit parallel 320x480 TFT on a MKR Zero?

The details: I have this 320x480 PARALLEL 8-bit ILI9488 TFT (pictures added to bottom of post).
It runs fine on an Uno with the MCUFRIEND_kbv library. Wiring to A0-A4 and D2-D9 via a breadboard to the MKR Zero doesn't work. 5v and 3.3v were wired to match the Uno. I added pinmode(9, OUTPUT) to use SCK as a digital out pin 9.

Has anyone been able to run an ILI9488 8 bit TFT with their MKR Zero? If so, kindly tell me which library they used, and what changes are needed (software or wiring).

And please, no yelling if I missed something obvious. I have 30 years as a software engineer, but am relatively new to hardware.

Thank you.

Why start another thread with the same question as this one: Has anyone successfully run an ILI9488 8-bit parallel 320x480 TFT on a MKR Zero?

That is cross posting and cross posting is against the rules.

If you do not get an answer after a few hours, you can bump the thread.

Apologies. I had no answer in three days, so I moved the discussion. I added a note at the top of my post to that effect. I tried to close the first post, but did not find a button allowing the original poster to close the discussion.
