My last 2 or 3 emails seem to have fallen off the edge of the planet.
Anyway I have now swapped the drives around and used the bios boot menu
to select a boot from what is now sdB, and its working. Next is to use
this copy of gparted to reformat /dev/sdA and then see if a successful
install can be done. I'd say buy me a beer but that might royally screw
things up, so wish me luck (good that is) ;-) This will be about the
6th full install today. But before I reboot to do that, I'd better fix
us some din-din. Maybe someone will have a better idea by then?
Hi Gene!
My recipe to Devuan ascii + LinuxCNC is this (take the commandlines with a salt of grain,
I'm not the machine right now):
- Install linuxcnc from the linuxcnc ISO
- "aptitude update && aptitude dist-upgrade"
- "apt-mark hold linux-image-3...."
- "apt-mark hold rtai-...."
- "apt-mark hold linuxcnc"
- add Devuan repsitory for jessie, upgrade to jessie.
- "aptitude purge $(dpkg -l|grep ^rc|tr : ' '|awk '{print $2}')
- change from jessie to ascii, upgrade to asci
- install "apt-show-versions"
- aptitude purge $(apt-show-versions|grep --invert-match uptodate|cut : ' '| awk
'{print $1}'
- when this is done, I intall TDE and purge all gnome stuff, and install NCAM
After this operation "axis" does not work, but "gmoccapy".
"ncam" works, "camview" does not, but "mplayer" does.
and get a bit more bottels of beer ..
Nik
