Need Amiga 1000 boot disks for VCF museum
The museum's Amiga 1000 boot disks appear to be not working. I'm not sure if it is the Kickstart or the Workbench disk . We usually used Ver 1.3. Not sure if Ver 1.2 works on that machine too. Can someone bring a copy?

Jeff, If it's a workbench disk that's needed, I've got one you can have. I'm not using my system recently and I'm equipped to make a new copy when I need it. Regards, Joe Giliberti On Sat, Feb 19, 2022, 11:13 AM Jeffrey Brace via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:

If, when booting the Kickstart, you get the Workbench request screen, then Kickstart is good. We might have a number of Workbench disks in the museum. Maybe even some Kickstart disks. I can help look for them next weekend. We can probably ask Ian if his disk imager can produce either one of them.

Aren’t both discs needed Kickstart and Workbench for 1000? Sent from: My extremely complicated, hand held electronic device.

Not that I can see. We have Workbench 1.2 disks, but no Kickstart 1.2. We have The Kickstart 1.3 working, but not the Workbench 1.3 working.

I asked Ian and he wasn't confident that he could do it.
