Ping reports network unreachable.
When I tried the
halrun
loadrt hostmot2
loadrt hm2_eth board_ip="10.10.10.10" CONFIG="num_encoders=1 num_stepgens=5 sserial_port_0=20xxxxxx"

It reports unknown parameter 'CONFIG="num_encoders=1 num_stepgens=5 sserial_port_0=20xxxxxx"'
wait_pid failed /usr/bin/rtapi_app/hm2_eth
rtapi_app exited without becoming ready.

If ping doesn't work, it means your network is not setup to access 10.10.10.10
That's not really related to LinuxCNC but a basic network setup issue

Did you read the hm2_eth manual page? it has a bit about network setup
Also if your computer has a network setup GUI, set the host Ethernet port
to a fixed (static) IPV4 address of say 10.10.10.20

To find the ethernet adapter name
ip link show
or
ip a

sudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces

auto enp0s25 << change to match your interface name
iface enp0s25 inet static
address 192.168.1.100 << if you use the mesa card 192.168.1.121 ip
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255

Andy,
Thanks.
I crashed my uSD and I am now trying to rebuild a new version on Buster. I really like the Desktop version. I had a version of linux-5.0 running on stretch but they have changed some things. I can boot it via ssh from my mac but the rt version won't display on my HDMI monitor.

I tried again to get rt_preempt running on Buster. I built the kernel linux-5.2.10-rt5-rockchip64 it will run but has a problem with ssh in from my mac. So I downloaded a later patch linux-5.2.14-rt7 and built linux-5.2.14-rt7-rockchip64 and it appears to run with out error.

I built linuxcnc (userspace) using John Thornton's instruction for the raspberry pi4b. I was able to start linuxcnc via ssh from my mac and got the config selector window. I didn't have my 7i76e plugged in because I haven't bought a USB3 to ethernet converter. Now that I have rt_preempt and linuxcnc both apparently running I will have to do that.
