https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Atari-Lynx BIOS file name is specified on the wiki page as lynxboot.img.

Also the more info about your environment you can provide the better: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

You don't even need to add Bios for Lynx. Just add roms to the correct folder. Worked for me.

@azrael11

With everything you've tried, it might be your roms that are problematic. Emulators aren't normally too picky in that regard, but after trying an emulator that needs a bios and one that doesn't with the same results, it would seem that your troubles may lie elsewhere.

@kris964 beetle-lynx does need a bios.

Also, you may need to switch the type of ROMs you have. I don't remember which it was now, but I think I had headered ROMs and they didn't work at all so once I switched to unheadered ROMs, they played fine.

If that's not right, just flip/flop it. I just don't remember if it was headered or unheadered that worked now, just that I had to change it up.

@zerojay how can i flip flop the header of the roms?
Thanks...

Get roms that have the opposite of what you have already whatever that is.

@mediamogul i think you are right.... Now were i can find all that roms?

But i try that roms with handy 0.95 in windows and work just fine...

Thanks...

Douggernaut

You're on your own for that.

@Douggernaut it is an hypothetical question.. 😀

@azrael11 and it's a cut and dried answer.

I found my roms in a bicycle shop in Cairo. The owner wanted them taken down to Dar es Salaam...
