The A2000 is similar to the A500 from the A2k 'B' revision onward.  The A2K 'A' version was based on the A1K motherboard.

I tried plugging it in but got a green screen!  Does anyone know what that means?

A green screen during boot appears to mean a problem was found in ChipRAM.  You may just need to get in there and reseat the ChipRAM to fix this problem.

More can be found about what those colors at boot mean at http://amiga.emugaming.com/selftest.html

Some Amiga's do require custom chip reseating.

My A500 needed to have everything that's socketed (including CPU) reseated about once a month.  It was very annoying but that's life.
