I parallel two motors frequently with no ill effects. There is no generation taking place. It will use more battery current for the two motors than it would for one, but it is also doing more work. -- Bob Fay rfay@we.mediaone.net The Shop (URL) (...)

(...) I was just trying out having 4 motors to power 4 wheels (one per wheel) and I saw this effect. I had the two motors on the right side both attached to output A and the two motors on the left side both attached to input C. But now I am worried (...)

It looks like I have most of the problems solved. However, one serious problem seems to be related to the length of the command line. Either "make" or the OS is truncating the command line to about 127 characters. This causes several module builds (...) (25 years ago, 17-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) When I first built legOS I discovered that I had TOOLPREFIX set wrong (Makefile.common) and gmake appeared to be ignoring rules for which the tools could not be found.
