There is a 2.0.1 startup disk:

I guess those aren't the droids you are looking for, but i thought i should mention that there seems to be a difference between 2.0 and 2.0.1 even in the startup disks. Maybe a kernel fix that can be implanted in your 2.0 if you can't get the update.

It's not just a matter of kernel; 2.0.1 replaced a large part of the system headers to make them more conformant with ANSI C compilers (one of the reasons it's difficult to port stuff to A/UX before 2.0.1)

FOUND IT! (the A/UX 2.0.1 update)

...or rather, an incomplete version of it. After much searching, I contacted the maintainer of the AUX Penelope website, and he happens to have a tarball with the disks (4 Mac format disks, plus 11 A/UX disks). He had to change file types as they were munged. The problem is it's missing disk 3, everything else is there :disapprove: :'(
