Softkicking KS 3.1 on A3k with 1.4 ROM
« on: September 19, 2014, 02:04:56 AM »
So i got unlucky and got my 3.1 ROMs in from ebay,  however the seller packed them in staticy styrofoam and shipped them that way, and one leg was broken off.   So im screwed on that front.  and there are no more 3k 3.1 roms on ebay.  

Is there any way to softkick the 3k into 3.1 so I can install classicwb

Probably pointing out the obvious, but you can buy new Kickstart ROM's still from AmigaKit:

IMHO there's no reason in this day & age to not have "the latest & greatest", especially when they're so cheap.  Of course I know some people on this board who'd prefer to run older ROM's for aesthetic reasons, but soft-kicking... why waste the memory?


Thats what I ended up doing,  Enough with the pain in the butt softkicking lol.
