- Introduction
-
- This little utility reads a 512k kickstart image file ad split it ready to be
- written un eprom for A1200 or A4000.
-
- The two kickstart rom are "seen" by the OS as a unique 32bit memory area so
- they are read in blocks of 16bit from both. In few words (but do not blame on
- my if this is not really correct or techy :-), SplitKick reads 2 bytes and
- writes them on one file, reads two more and writes them on the second file,
- then starts over until the end of the 512k.
-
- A very old one, but recently a discussion on it.comp.os.amiga let me decide
- to release both the source and the executable.
-
-
- Use
-
- SplitKick Input/A Output
-
- Input file name with path of the kickfile to be read, mandatory

-
- Do whatever you want with it but DO NOT BLAME ON ME if something will get
- wrong! Actually I HAVE NEVER tested it for real!!
-
- ...and, off course, do not ask me a kickstart image file... :-)
