IIRC WB2.02 will be the greatest you can run. Why not puck up some 3.1 roms and OS3.9(if you have 020  or better that is).

Possibly WB2.0 to WB2.04

I've used WB2.05 but that came with the 2.05 Rom.
I think WB2.1 also uses the 2.05 Rom, but I could be wrong on this.

IIRC WB2.1 came with CrossDos.

Hed also need:
° At least 1Mb Chip Ram.
° At least 4Mb Fast Ram and
° A CD-ROM drive and the Filing System.

Yes, WB 2.1 came with CrossDOS and uses Kickstart ROM 2.04/2.05.

If the A2000 has Kickstart 37.175, it's 2.04 and will work with WB 2.1. Kickstart 2.05 was only used in the A600.

;-) The most effective way to remove a virus is to boot from a non-infected floppy and then reformat the hard drive.  Short of that, a very good virus checker can remove the virus for you, but virus programmers keep writing new viruses, with an eye toward thwarting virus checkers.  It’s just a matter of which is newer.

Certainly, you want to check all of your backups for viruses before restoring them back to your system.

I recon virus programmers are the same people who make the antivirus software, either that or they pay people to do it.  Then they keep getting money for their programs.  It's a conspiracy I tell you, dam it!!!!!!!!!

You're not wrong, it does. I had an A600 running WB2.1 with a 2.05 (Kick v37.300) ROM for some years.
