Sure you do!  You won't get it on a Kickstart disk without lots of hassle,
but just like A500/A2000 owners you go out an buy the ROM.  The difference
is that for the A1000 it comes on a little tower with descriptions of
what jumpers to hit and where to attach the micro-clip(s).  Very little
work compared to a 256K ROM upgrade alone.  (Less if you consider that
the 256K ROM upgrade requires soldering in two new sockets).

Or you load up 256K of the ROM in the old sockets and soft-load the
other 256K from disk.  (into your 256K of old Kickstart RAM). (yech!)
