Not sure about how you'd tackle the later Kickstarts, though, without having a good knowledge of code disassembly.įor those who want to have a little bit of fun I've disassembled the kick 31 using ira. There are a few utilities on Aminet that will make images of A1000 Kickstart disks.
You could possibly mess with these disks and make your own custom additions. There was also a virus protector called Guardian that could be incorporated into Kickstart 1.2 and possibly 1.3 disks for IIRC. Well, HQC and Level42 released patched versions of Kickstart 1.2 and UFO released a patched Kickstart 1.3 disk with additions like intros, virus killers, memory config programs, and file copiers. OK, technically you wouldn't be able to release it but is it possible to do stuff like this? Isn't it all 68k after all? How come I've not seen one lame attempt at changing the KS visually so it's visible to the end-user? I'm suprised I haven't seen any floating around, well there is the infamous lame kickstart hack that just had someone change the version numbers of the last KS3.1 chip to confuse every one.īut what I meant was for instance a KS3.1 image that has been modified to show a nice EAB logo or something.
