Can I run another Kickstart on my Amiga?

There are quite a number of softkickers available to do the job. These require a ROM image that will be copied into memory and then reboot. The best of the lot is probably SKickPro, which allows you to load different Kickstart versions in from a menu screen.

Alternatively there is ReloKICK, which only works with Kickstart 1.3 images, and Tude that doesn't need a ROM image at all and comes with a number of configurations to get certain games working.

For those with a faster processor there is Ultimate Amiga Emulator (UAE), a Unix port of the famous Amiga emulator. It offers a number of features, such as loading games in a window. However, it is a bit to slow on anything less than a PowerPC processor, running at an average of two frames per second. If you have a Blizzard accelerator board, you can also get a Kickstart emulator that uses the MMU to emulate a Kickstart. This runs quite well and can be use with a number of configurations.
