Short: MapROM tool for Blizzard (1260 too!) turbos. V1.4. Author: e-mail not available (Harry Sintonen) Uploader: jtynkkyn@planet.fi Type: util/batch Version: 1.4 Requires: OS 1.0+, Blizzard turbo with MAPROM feature BlizKick is used to rekick any Kickstart ROM image with blizzard turbo boards having MAPROM feature (jumper). It has been tested with Blizzard A1230-III and A1260 boards. Kickstart 1.3 and 3.0 are currently only tested ROM images. BlizKick main features include: - Uses Blizzard board's own MAPROM feature (jumper). - No kickstart file preparation or similar is needed. You can just save any ROM image and give it to BlizKick! - Can make memory on Blizzard board LOCAL, bypass flashy boot of the board and speed up ROM boot. - Doesn't use MMU, KickMem, KickTag, ColdCapture or CoolCapture vectors. -> 100% transparent! - BlizKick is as OS compatible as possible: Doesn't use any additional memory (except those 512K), coolcapture, coldcapture, kickmem or kicktag vectors. - Works with KS 1.0+ There's really no use for this, except for restoring Kickstart 2.x/3.x after using Kickstart 1.x: There's no other "soft" way to restore original KS than using BlizKick again with the original ROM image! (that I know of...) Of course power-off will work too... :) - Tested with Blizzard 1230 @ 50MHz and Blizzard 1260 @ 50MHz turbo boards. - FreeWare! Copyright © 1996 PitPlane Productions.
