Hi, Please help us all get this straight... If we choose a specific synth during "make config" (eg. LTLK), a normal boot will expect/use a litetalk. If, on a boot at some later time with no synth attached (or a different synth attached) we can choose none (or whichever synth is currently attached). What is the parameter to give to the lilo prompt to alter the no-synth/other-synth behaviour? Thanks, --terry You wrote: -=> Hi Janina: If you want it to come up with no synth you enter the -=> string "none".
