  I too get this message when trying to boot into the 68000 on
my 2000, equipped with A2620 (2 Meg 32-bit RAM), Trumpcard
SCSI interface, and Meta-4 Memory board (2 Meg 16-bit RAM).
  However, the system doesn't hang, it works just fine
in 68000 mode (where the 2 MB of 16 bit Fast RAM are really
nice).
  Is there some explanation for this?  Should I be wary
of upgrading to 4 MB 32-bit RAM for fear of losing
68000 compatibility entirely?  What upgrading to 
Trumpcard Pro, will that work in 68000 mode?
 
 BTW:  Just got a 2630 w/ SONY 1320 VGA . . . FANTASTIC !!!!

Thanks,
