If you owned the very first Amiga, The Amiga 1000, It would boot up to an Insert Kickstart Disk screen, Here you needed to insert a Floppy Disk with the Kickstart 1.x Loader on it before you could load anything else, including Workbench:
After inserting the Kickstart Loader Disk, The Amiga would then switch to another Static Insert Disk Image, as shown below, There were several Kickstart Revisions such as 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, and the Amiga 500 came with a Kickstart Chip internally so used to show the Kickstart 1.3 Image from below, There was no need to use a Kickstart Disk on the Amiga 500 as it was already available on Boot:
There was also a Kickstart 1.4 which was still in Alpha which is pictured here, This was a major change from the above Static Disk Images, This was the first animated Insert Disk screen which was kept for later revisions of the Amiga Kickstart ROM:
Then Commodore released Kickstart 2.0 and afterwards released Kickstart 3.0 and 3.1 all of which followed the above 1.4 Alpha visual format, which is a much nicer Insert Disk Logo than the Static Kickstart 1.0 through 1.3 had (further above)
There was also the Amiga CDTV which Started up like so:
As well as the CD32 Boot Logo:
There is also an Free and Open Source version of the Amiga OS, called AROS ROM, This sadly is not yet 100% Binary Compatible, and aims to become compatible with Kickstart 3.1 (Wiki) – At this moment in time (2024) AROS ROM can successfully run both Stubborn “Must Have Kickstart 1.3” Games and even Kickstart 2/3 Games and Applications and I hope this support for both continues, as when it is finished, then all you will ever need is the AROS ROM to run ALL Amiga Software
The AROS ROM Boot Logo is shown below:
Usually for AROS ROM, There is a moveable Mouse Cursor right on the Insert Disk screen (Top-Left)
I never personally owned an Amiga A300 but apparently when switched on showed this Kickstart ROM Screen:
Please feel free to add your Comments and/or link me to any missing Kickstart Boot Logos I may have missed while making this page
