-
- 3. Hardware
- ===========
- KICKMAKER runs ONLY under Kickstart 2.04 or greater. It needs 512kB, the stack
- should be about 4000 bytes. You MUST have a DEVS:KICKSTART >=2.04 file.
-
-
- 4. How it Works
- ===============
- The purpose of KICKMAKER is the update of the A3000 Kickstart 2.03 Disk.
- This disk can be found in all the A3000 without ROM. These machines load
- kickstart from a file named KICKSTART, which is placed in WB_2.x:DEVS/.
- Optionally, with these machine you can load kickstart from a diskette, but
- the version of this kick is very old.
- KICKMAKER search into DEVS: for a file named KICKSTART. If found it, KICKMAKER
- provides to update your A3000 KICKSTART 2.03 DISK with the new KICKSTART
- file.
- KICKMAKER works only from CLI.
-
-
- 5. Usage of KICKMAKER
- =====================
- First, make a copy of your KickStart disk (XCopy works very well). Then,
- put this copied disk into DF0: ;
- Make sure that in DEVS: there is the kickstart file;
- There are no TOOL-TYPES, simple type KICKMAKER from CLI;
