Amiga 1000 just the noise

Entry 07th November 2024: Post 1: Amiga 1000 - Boot Sequence.
Amiga 1000 - Boot Sequence.
Responding to a query regarding the actual boot process and sequence
for the Amiga 1000. Note that the ROM or Kickstart for this machine
unlike other Amigas is on a disk. So before loading the Workbench
you are required to boot the Kickstart Disk.
The Amiga 1000 gives out a short trill noise when first switched on.
The Amiga 1000 obviously started life with Workbench 1 but moved
very rapidly to Workbench 1.2 and with the release of the Amiga 500
upgraded to Workbench 1.3.
Today I will test the machine with Kickstart 1.2 and Workbench 1.2.
You will need both disks to use the Amiga Workbench.
