- Connect the same pins you had to connect when you installed the 2.04
- ROMs (if the A2000 didn't come along with 2.04). If you didn't have
- to, your 3.1 ROM is blown up or it isn't intended for an A2000. Ask
- for replacement or feel free to softkick 3.1... at least you bought
- the rights to use it.
