You've got a couple of challenges here. First, will your BIOS even recognize the Barton chip with the 512 L2. It may not and the machine just sits there when you try to boot. I assume you've reviewed the latest BIOS available for your board and it doesn't list Barton support? Have you checked for any Beta BIOS's?
If it does recognize the chip, then to run the Barton down at 266, you'll want to change the multiplier, or else underclock your chip. I've had mixed results with unlocked Athlons and I'm not sure how the Barton's are set up. However, there are mods you can do to manually set multipliers by closing bridges, but those involve chip mods.
