Will this IDE board work on an A1000?
Can it work with < 3.0? That is, if i had a 1.3 workbench floppy disk that had the necessary driver, could it boot from the floppy into 1.3, then continue the boot process from the IDE drive, or does it require additions in the OS provided in 3.x?
Software-wise:
If you have the A3000 super kickstart disk and the Workbench 2.1 boot disk, no problem. But you also need:
Hardware-wise:
At least 1Mb of Chip RAM, plus some FAST RAM.

Other way: If your A1000 have the kickstart ROM 2.05 (37300 or 37350), simply plug the board and use the Install disk of the Workbench 2.1.

Neither of the above? Forget about it!
Without a SCSI.device loaded in RAM, you can't boot from the HD, neither access it after diskette boot.
