      How is written in the wiki.
      directly /recalbox/share/bios/
      I see only 3 files for that system in wiki.

        @abunille I think the first file number i search from the list had all the Bios in the list on plus more and that is what got me confused. i'll transfer all and see how it goes.

        thanks

              So have managed to get a number of BIOS across that work all ok, the one i'm having issues with is the Atari Lynx Bios as I have search for the one recommended in github but the only one that comes up is

              [BIOS] Atari Lynx (USA, Europe)

              I know lynxboot.img is needed so i changed the name but still the roms wont load.

              when I load a game the screen goes black then back to the game selection screen.

                Hi,
                have you checked the "md5sum" how is written in the wiki?
                When its not the md5sum you need, you must search further i think.

                And have you checked your rom extension?
                When they are .zip files, look into the .zip, if the file inside is an supported extension.

                    i checked the file extension with the read me file in the Lynx folder and i'm using a .lnx file.

                    im checking the md5sum tonight as been having some laptop issues

                      @kaz69 Is your problem with the lynx bios or lynx roms themselves ? The current core doesn't support the no-intro file format

                        checked BIOS on md5sum and it matches the one on github.

                        @Substring I'm not sure which as the BIOS number matches up right and the Roms are correct for whats said in the read me file .lnx Whats he no-intro file format?

                          @kaz69 the lynx emulator is quite a pain, it doesn't accept whichever rom ...

                            i downloaded the roms from a trusted site and all their other roms are fine, maybe its just lynx
                            ,

                              @kaz69 as I said, the emulator is very picky on roms and doesn't support the widespread rom headers (some crap like that)

                                @substring thanks I guess it's just trying out different games and seeing what works and doesn't.

                                Do you know what other emulators are like this so I'm prepared for it 😊

                                    Yeah tried arcade and got a few working on FBA libretro that didn't work on MAME but I'm still trying to get the Michael Jackson Arcade game to work.

                                    Lynx I'm still working on but fingers crossed I'll find something, then I can post my findings here

                                      @kaz69 no rom links 😉
                                      @rockaddicted surely has a few tips regarding lynx roms
