For those who know, if my Amiga 1000 has v 1.1 ROMS, will it only boot with a 1.1. kickstart disk?
If your Amiga is asking for a Kickstart disk (i.e., it has a WCS board not Kickstart in ROM), then it should work with any version of Kickstart from 1.0 to 1.3. 2.0 is too large to fit on the WCS board so that's when a bunch of us got ROM expanders to use an A500/A2000 Kickstart ROM chip. Some people also converted the WCS RAM to be extra RAM, I think, but that was a bit of a hack.
