HOW TO SEND BUG REPORTS FOR MKICK
---------------------------------
Before sending a bug report, check your Kickstart ROM version. If it is 2.0
or newer, you should use SKick instead of MKick (MKick Kickstart header files
can be converted to SKick format by the Kick2RTB utility -- also included in
this archive). If it isn't, you can continue reading this file...
If MKick doesn't work on your machine and you think it should work, send
me a bug report (to <mj@k332.feld.cvut.cz>). Each bug report should contain:
(1) Exact description of what's going wrong (reports containing only 'MKick
doesn't work on my machine' are totally useless).
(2) Which Kickstart version you're trying to use, including the machine it's
built for (there exist A600, A1200 A3000 and A4000 version of most
Kickstarts).
(3) What's the effect of NOTAGS and NOTEST options. Also, if you suspect MKick
to have some problems with your memory configuration, try to force
each of your memory types by CHIP, FAST, EXT and NAC options. If you use
the EBREL option, try to switch it off.
(4) What colors appear on the screen if the DEBUG switch is turned on. (They
have been selected to be different enough even on mono monitors.)
(5) Output of some system configuration analyser (best is CBM's ShowConfig with
the DEBUG switch turned on -- it's included on WB3.1 disks; also possible
to use some SysInfo utility).
(6) Name of Kickstart header file you're using (if you made some changes to it,
send the changes). If you've generated the KSHD from SKick RTB/PAT files,
specify names of these files and version of SKick archive you've taken them
from.
(7) Complete description of your hardware configuration. (Especially various
hardware hacks, accelerator boards etc.)
(8) If MKick starts the Kickstart and no expansion boards (fast memory, hard
drives and similar devices) are visible or if the Kickstart doesn't survive
reset, include output of the KickStat utility (also included in this
archive).
(9) Output of the KickInfo utility if applied to your Kickstart (included in
this archive).
(10) Version of MKick (you can obtain it by typing MKick ?, then answering ? at
the prompt).
Thanks
