I want to say, that I fully agree here with Guido. I am using a boot
selector program (XBOOT) that complains every time I change the Name of the
MiNT executable, e.g. when I want to enable memory protection and I rename
mintnp.prg to mint.prg, XBoot complains that mintnp.prg is missing...
And in a mintboot.cnf, we could also determine where MiNT should look for
the mint.cnf, so that ./ , mint/ and multitos/ problem would be solved!?!
