Not sure off the top of my head - if runbootblock runs the real bootblock, 
you should have a short pause before it begins booting. During that pause, 
you can hit a key and type your own boot flags. Assuming you have AGA, add 
the -A option, and you should get a 31 KHz screen.

I assume that everyone assumes - including Commodore - that everyone will 
have a display for their Amiga's native video. Kinda backwards, yes!
