Ohwell. I would have contested that view and kept the video up.

Since after all, the video itself isn't infringing in any way.

I was told their complaint was 'manipulation of copy protection'
Since there's no copy protection in the ROM or the 3.5/3.9 ROMUpdate files,I'd love to see Amiga Inc try and prove that one in court.
On schedule, and suing

Indeed, the ROMUpdate format is rather self-explonary.. if you have any clue what executable files look like it's trivial to extract the modules out of it.

It took me just couple of hours to write the tool to extract the files out of the update. The result is in the BlizKick archive, including source code.

For the tinkerer, what size are the Kickstart ROMs: 256k (32kx8) or 2Mb(256kx8)?

Hello to all of you,

I explained why I have put the video and thread offline somewhere on amiga.org! At that time it was a good decission to save my forum, nowadays I think I would react different...

I am still waiting (since over 1 year) to get my acquittal from the german public prosecutor. ;-) Nice {bleep}ings to McEvil. :-)

That is may the reason why I am still waiting to get an answer from the court... but today I know that whole AInc. consists of some old computers and an empty office, nothing to be afraid of here in germany. ;-)

I have posted photos and a video of my custom 3.9 ROM in my A1200. AInc are more than welcome to attempt to prosecute me. I know I have done nothing illegal.

There's no relationship between the kickstart version and the machine it's made for.
eg. There was a 40.70 for the A4000D, but it had problems with scsi.device when used with some CPU cards, so they dropped back to 40.68


Kinda Contradictory if you really think about what you wrote!  :-D

@ motorollin

I'd still love to see that tutorial up on A-Org properly written out.
Any chance?
It's not the question, that is the problem, it is the problem, that is the question.
