- In general it is true that any software not following the guidelines
- can cause problems with 680x0 ( x > 0).
- Among and above that older A2620/2630 can cause trouble with Kick > 2.0.
- This is because of the older ROMs on this cards.
- Pressing both mouse buttons while booting with older ROMs you should
- run into the A2620/2630 Bootscreen. On this screen you can switch
- between 68000, 680x0 and AMIX.
- With the newer ROMs you have to press the right mouse button. The
- A2620/2630 Bootscreen is the same as above exept of the choice AMIX.

- It can coexist, but it occupies some space in autoconfig.
- D.Haynie mentioned something that it's possible to remap the MEM
- on the A2620 outside the autoconfig adress range, but i have no
- further informations.
