how to aquire a kickstart for A1000 in this day and age

Hello and welcome!

your best bet, apart from some lovely person here pm'ing you with a copy, is to go to the English Amiga Board here and do a request for app:

where they are less strict about issues surrounding such things.

Lately here, there has been a lot of nasty sentiment and childish fighting over 30 year old copyright and such.

Without a monitor, you'll need to source either a monitor, an older TV with component in, or a VGA adapter such as the Indivision line.

Being a recent returnee myself, I can tell you that it is really easy to get disheartened by the attitudes you will find in what passes for the Amiga community today.  Take heart - there are a lot more good eggs that make up for the rotten ones.

Good Luck!

Hi,

I may have my original Kickstart disk set in one of my Amiga boxes. I have Kickstart 1.0, 1.1, and 1.2 in my system disks box. I could make you a copy and send it to you since I need another location to store my backups, you know just in case of fire or something like that, this way if something happens to my original disks I can call you and get a backup of them. PM me and I will see about drawing up the contract.

Smerf is a good egg.
