It shouldn't cause any problems, though you won't be able to access it under the 1.3 environment.

A better option if you have a hard drive in your A1200 would be to use WHDLoad to install the games to hard disk. Then you wouldn't need to use ReloKick to degrade the machine, and you wouldn't need to use floppies to play your games.

@CDE_MusiX: you can use without any troubles Relokick with your system.
I have WB 3.1 and a 2.5 hard disk, and i have installed Kickswitch (very similar to Relocki. Basically it does the same: reboots your machine in a A500 enviroment)
I also have WHDLOAD installed, but i have plenty of games on disks, so i dont mind degrading my A1200 to be able to play all the old gems without doing a mess in my desk
I also have a Blizzard 1230 board installed (dont know if you have one), and to be able to use Kickswitch and/or Relocki, i just disable the board when i switch my amiga on (pressing button 2).

Basically thats it!

Hope you find this info usefull

Cheers

i have only the basic placement on the amiga. And, i'm afraid of a thing: Once i have inserted degrader (Relokick), after the amiga 1200 didn't return to be his (Normal boot)?
And, i can install WHDLoad on Workbench 3.1? (My ROM is 3.0)

you have to turn off the amiga and reopen her after a minute to boot in the normal way. i try a lot in the past the A1200 with relokit1.41 and a rom ''called'' rom141 but it never boot any wb1.3 or any other floppy disk.

If i am going to have bugs on my system,
at least let me keep the latest versions.
