It requires that CBM release the 2.0 roms for general consumption.
Other than that, 2.0 will run in any amiga, with any versions of the
custom chips. 2.0 roms are twice as big (logically and probably
physically) and may not fit directly into an A500 or an A2000 without
a little daughter board to hold them.

Yes, under 2.0. "Assign list" I think.
