Well, that's easy to solve: have both mint.prg and mintnp.prx in your Auto folder and only enable one of them. IIRC, XBOOT has an option to link two entries, i.e. that upon activating one, the other gets automatically deactivated, and vice versa. > 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!?! Well, having MiNT look for this file (mintboot.cnf) in \auto of the current drive only would be an idea, and it should only allow stuff you can also achieve with MiNT's command line parameters (though, IIRC, there's currently none to specify a mint.cnf to read). If there's no such file, behave as usual. Command line parameters override the settings in that file. Thus, one won't need that file, but using it could improve configuring some things.
