Kickstart ROM v1.2
Kickstart 1.2 was the first kickstart stored in ROM, previous Kickstart versions required a boot disk.
Kickstart could now identify and use the correct frequencies/screen resolutions for either a PAL (50Hz) or NTSC (60Hz)-based Amiga system, and Workbench adapted to the new higher resolutions.
Revision 33.166 (Commodore, 1986) is used by:
- A1000
Revision 33.180 (Commodore, 1986) is used by:
- A500
- A2000
