Greetings.
With all the talk of AMOS3 on the way, further Amiga upgrades, future
development, and my being a programmer & coder (needing updated hardware),
I've been thinking about some 3.1 for myself (my one Miggie that I use for
programming is set up: A2000 '040 with 1M Chip and plenty of 32bit Fast,
but still with 2.04, not too bad, but having two kick's would be nice).
I had inquired several months ago on the subject of "soft" and ROM kickers
for my 2000, and got something from Giark (albeit the 500 is quite similar
to the 2000, since he was using his old 500 at the time). He didn't quite
help me much in the way of referencing any good kickers ;) and after trying
quite a few on Aminet, I still WASN'T kicking WB3 on my Amiga!
After a few tries I stopped looking and working with all the kickers I had,
having other (better) things to do (at the time CBATNAM). But as I said
here, I'm wanting to get back to looking for a kicker that will help.
I recently got word that someone I have contact with could get me an A4000
Toaster (supposedly a good load) for a relatively good deal (still no word
on this yet). It's been awhile since I heard anything from him, and since I
really haven't the time right now to wait on him :) it comes down to this.
I'm basically looking for a good kicker (archive with some .docs, plz) that
will kick WB3 on my 2000. As I mentioned earlier, some of the ones I tried
(ReKick, mKick, et al.) didn't work, namely to a few things (the #1 thing
was that they "claimed", or were supposed to, keep the ROM resident in
memory, allowing me to cold reboot without losing the image. Wrong!). I
also think my '040 accelerator and hardware config or setup might have
disagreed with a few of them, thereby wonk'ing it and them not working.
If anyone here has, uses, or could point me to a few good kickers, I would
be a happy camper. My A2000 setup is (once more): '040 25, 1M Chip, 18M
Fast, couple of internal boards, 2 SCSI and several externals. For those
that want more or need any extra, mail me and I'll give you a more detailed
listing of my current hardware setups, etc. Anyhow, help is appreciated.
