You can put the file anywhere I think, as long as you point the softkick programme to the correct file.

Alternatively, since you can see your Amiga's hard drive in UAE, just install Workbench 1.3 on to it, then put it back in your Amiga and then you will be able to boot without softkicking.

The other solution would be to install a 2.0 kickstart chip.

Cool  :-)

Now you have your machine booting, you need to either buy a Kickstart 2 chip, or Amiga Forever which contains a legal ROM image. Softkicking without one of these isn't allowed. The ROM chip would be the better option as it would remove the need to softkick altogether.

Alternatively, now you can boot, you could make some Workbench 1.3 disks and install 1.3 to the hard disk instead of 2.05, then it will boot 1.3 without needing to softkick.

I dunno, I heard that every time you softkick God kills a kitten.

Oh wait, that was something else.
