 This install applies to "Defender" © 1993 Acid

 This install requires WHDLoad to be in the path. It can be found in the
 WHDLoad package.

 The installed program requires 0.5 MB ChipMem and 1.0 MB OtherMem.
 
 The game requires an installed A600, A1200 or A4000 Kickstart 3.1 image.
 The kickstart image must be located in the directory "Devs:Kickstarts" and
 must be named "kick40063.A600", "kick40068.A1200", or kick40068.A4000. 
 The image can be extracted from a A1200 (resp A4000) with tools like 'GrabKick'
 or similar which can be found on aminet.
 If the image is of wrong version or altered in any way WHDLoad will quit with
 an appropriate requester.
 Additionally the file "kick40063.A600.RTB","kick40068.A1200.RTB" or
 "kick40068.A4000.RTB" must be installed in the same directory as the
 kickstart image.
 It can be found in the archive "util/boot/skick346.lha" on aminet.

 If you have problems with this installation please try and get a newer
 version of this package from the WHDLoad WWW-Page. If that doesn't help try
 some Tooltypes like NOCACHE, NOAUTOVEC, NOVBRMOVE, NOMMU, PAL or NTSC. If
 that also fails, please inform the author via the Bug-Report-Form which
 can be accessed on the WHDLoad WWW-Page or create a mantis issue directly
 at http://mantis.whdload.de

 version 1.0 (16.10.2023) done by JOTD:
 - initial release
 - VBR accesses removed & other misc startup fixes
 - source code included
 
This slave has been written as an exercise to convert a generic kick (which tampered with the VBR)
into a real install in order to show how a simple install was done. It was finally not that easy.

It was reported that sound effects could be trashed at times. NOCACHE fixes some, I didn't find obvious
reasons for that in the game (proper DMA waits seem to be there)
