How to boot '020 A2000 into PAL / '000 mode?

[Darrin]

So did A2500 owners of NTSC machines not watch demos, generally?  Trying the boot block method -- but it seems insane there's no way to boot with 1) 68000 and 2) PAL combined.

I assume I need 68000 as many demos that DID run before I installed the A2620 (68020 accel) are not running on the current system after the typical Degrader boot (for PAL -- and it is going into PAL, as long as I don't go the the CPU menu after the boot).

Crazy frustrating.

Do I need to rig a PAL switch or something, somehow?  Want to get this sorted.

Thanks.

As you got an A2000 with a 68020 CPU then why not try WHDLoad and install KG's demo packs onto your hard drive?

I've only started using WHDLoad recently (on an A4000 with KS3.1 and a 68040) and it certainly seems to do the trick once you installed the correct ROM images onto your hard drive.

Oh, and check which Agnus you have.  I picked up a NTSC ECS A2000 off eBay and using a knife I fixed it to boot into PAL instead of NTSC.  However, this only works with certain mobos with certain Agnus chips.  If you're luck enough to have the right combination then you can even set a switch onto a jumper and toggle which mode to boot into.
