As far as I know, the [HOSTMOT2](BOARD) isn't wrong if the loaded ini file contains a section named "HOSTMOT2" with an entry like "BOARD=hm2_5i20". But I also think that it's not really a problem to have those names hardcoded in the HAL, as a change in the board would need messing around with the HAL wiring anyway. Cheers, Philipp
