I don't want to contradict Carolyn but I have the same experience with
my 2620 and I talked to Dave H. about it.  He says (and I believe) that
the problem with the error message is that the version of ROMS is not
current and they have a problem with autoconfig memory.  It does NOT cause
any problems however.  The problem with compabitility is because switching
from 68020 to 68000 modes with a warm reboot really is not kosher.  If
you want to do this for game/etc compatibility you MUST power the machine
down and cold boot into 68000 mode.  You can go to 68020 mode with a
warm boot however.
Hope this is useful.
