[comp.sys.amiga.hardware] 512k roms in Amiga500

bdraschk@immd4.informatik.uni-erlangen.de (Bernd Raschke) (06/10/91)

Reading c.s.a.* I've learned, that some of the newer A500 and A2000 will
be able to house the new 512k roms needed for kick 2.0. What I want to
know is: How new does this A500 have to be? My board is Rev 5, will that
be new enough???

Ciao and thanks in advance,
	bernd

 I thought that all the Amiga 500s (and 2000s) would be able to use the 512K
Kickstart 2.0 ROM. Is this not correct?

Does this mean that A1000's with a Kickstart in ROM mod will work with
the newer 512k ROMs?
