Updating to latest version of 2.8

I would not be too concerned. Just run with V2.9.

Whats happened is that V2.8 development is frozen and its has been hived off in preparation for it to become the release version instead of V 2.7. The devs can no do final testing and bug fixes and build all the extra stuff for the website and the like pending the release.

Yes that was much better, a fresh install. After all the messing around I've done I'm sure other things got jacked.

Still loaded 2.9 pre. though No problem I'll run with it for now,

Now you have reverse run!

If you build and install LinuxCNC using my instructions you just need to checkout the version you want before building... I need to update my instructions.

So, any time estimate on v2.8 going live? I'm in the process of setting up a CNC router and trying to decide whether or not to wait for 2.8.

Thanks!

I would guess 1-3 weeks. If you plan to use 2.8 though, I would not bother with a 2.7 install. The differences in the config are significant. However I don't think you have to force yourself to wait for the official announcement, you can install it now from buildbot.
