If you burn your own KS1.3 EPROM you can patch in the required scsi.device to support booting from the A600's IDE.

And if you are going to burn your own EPROM (or have someone else do it for you) why not make your own KS Switcher using nothing more than 3-pole switch, three pieces of wire and a 27C800 EPROM. See this great guide by Kipper2k.

But it is really academic. Once you've got WHDload installed on your A600's hard drive running games from hard drive using KS3.1 you'll (probably) never switch back to booting floppy disks for gaming. And thus never need KS1.3
