mysql + update top n

I've got a query like this:

update  table
set     status = 1
where   status = 2;     

but I'd only like to do this to the top 400. I tried adding a 'limit 0, 400' (like I would in a query) but that didn't work. I did some searching and mysql doesn't seem to support the TOP(n) command as sql server does.

Any idea how I'd do this?

edit: for future reference, I was using the following style for selects, which worked fine:

select  * 
from    table
where   ... limit 0, 400;

but in the update it wouldn't work with the "0, " for whatever reason. I would consider this inconsistent and ambiguous behaviour, but oh well.
