* Do not jump to location $FC0002 as part of performing a system RESET. Many RESET functions jumped to what was the start of the ROM under 1.3. The 2.0 ROM is twice the size. We've added a temporary compatibility hack called ``Kickety-Split'' to the 2.04 Kickstart ROM. The ROM is split into two halves with a redirecting jump at $FC0002. This hack does not appear on the A3000 and due to space considerations will not appear on future machines. * Everything has moved. * The Supervisor stack is not in the same place as it was under 1.3. This has caused problems for some games that completely take over the Amiga. If your program goes into Supervisor mode, you must either respect allocated memory or provide your own Supervisor stack when taking over the machine. * ExecBase is moved to expansion memory if possible. Previously, ExecBase would only end up in one of two fixed locations. As a result, ColdCapture may be called after expansion memory has been configured. Great pains were taken to make this compatible. * Exception/Interrupt vectors may move. This means the 68010 and above Vector Base Register (VBR) may contain a non-zero value. Poking assumed low memory vector addresses may have no effect. You must read the VBR on 68010 and above to find the base. * No longer tolerant of wild Forbid() counts. Under 1.3, sometimes this bug could go unnoticed. Make sure that all Forbid's are matched with one and only one Permit (and vice versa). * When an Exec device gets an IORequest, it must validate io_Command. If the io_Command is 0 or out of range, the device must return IOERR_NOCMD and take no other action. The filesystem now sends new commands and expects older devices to properly ignore them. * A 2.0 fix to task-switching allows a busy task to properly regain the processor after an interrupt until either its quantum (4 vertical blanks) is up or a higher priority task preempts it. This can dramatically change the behavior of multitask programs where one task busyloops while another same-priority task Wait()s.
