New ethercat / probe basic control for minimonster

iwlwifi-2030-6.ucode

I did not know it was a wifi card. Why don't you just plug to a wired network until lts installed? I never use wifi for installations.
Trixie should support it as its up to 2024 version

sudo apt install firmware-iwlwifi should do the trick on Trixie.

no wired connection.
fixed now. this is my frustration with linux. it said you are missing this file, put it on a usb and continue. NOWHERE does it say no, don't do that at all, go get this .deb file of intel stuff instead.

They first make it deliberately difficult, then make the instructions deliberately obtuse assuming everyone already knows everything there is to know about linux.

And then they wonder why it never really makes more headway with the masses.

Well that was a waste of several hours for nothing.

finshed installing.. reboots..... no operating system installed.

*slams head on desk*

Now what? its the only disk in there.

Try Linux Mint Debian Edition 6
www.linuxmint.com/download_lmde.php
Try the live version, if everything works, almost always it will work after installing it on the drive.
To install LinuxCNC use the same
sudo apt install linuxcnc-uspace

Already done here.

The no OS found is a lenovo thing I forgot about. needs a bios flash. doing that now.
