Or my friends 2000 (WITH the new agnus chip!). 
We ran palboot from the cli. It just blanked the screen. so we rebooted,
thinking that maybe it will come up in pal mode... Nope, we get a software
failure requestor. 

What gives? how do you use palboot anyway? The docs just had one line in it
that said something like: "this will let you boot up in PAL mode".

I might just have a flakey copy of palboot, or I may be using it wrong.
or palboot may be a piece of sh*t. let me know.
