We had some storms roll through and lost power. I'll try probably tomorrow when we have power again. Thanks.

Are you in Kosovo ? We had hail storms yesterday, the roads were full of water that driving at 20 KMH was hard ! :)

Ok now I tried cntrl+shift 3 times on reboot and it doesn't go to grub at all. It just boots into the desktop as normal.

I'm in the US, in Texas. There was a hurricane coming inland about 3 hours to the south, pushing some storms up here where I'm at.

Did you try both sides of the keyboard ? I have two PCS that require that on a USB keyboard.
so both CTRL and both Shifts

Just tried it twice, then a 3rd with the wireless keyboard removed and an old-school good wired keyboard instead. Just boots normal into the Mint desktop.

Go to Menu > Administration > Grub Customizer > select the kernel with RT in the name > click the up arrow untill that is the top most choice > Save and close, reboot.

Did that. The only option with RT was recovery mode, booted to that and ran uname -a and its RT but only in recovery mode.

Went back to the Grub thing again and this time the non-recovery one was there. Moved it to the top and rebooted, and now after uname -a it's showing RT. Thanks Tommy.

Nevermind that, make the config and save it, you can tune things later from LinuxCNC using the calibration thingy.
What does uname -a say now ?
