LinuxCNC on Debian 10 Buster quick and easy install was created by tommylight

Please use the official release found here:
linuxcnc.org/downloads/
Use this tutorial only if you have issues with dirvers, be it WiFi or graphic or else, ..



This is the easiest way to get Linuxcnc working on Debian Buster:
--Download the non-free version of Debian as the free version has no proprietary drivers included and may result in non functioning hardware, from here
-
cdimage.debian.org/images/unofficial/non.../current-live/amd64/
-
----In case the above link does not work, change the number 4 in the address to 5, where the debian version is. So 10.4.0 becomes 10.5.0 or 10.6.0 etc. Only needed when a new version of Debian is released. Also do please notify us so we can fix the link.
-
--Choose BT if you have bittorrent client installed or iso-hybrid for normal download
--Write the downloaded ISO to a USB drive using DD in linux or win32imager in windows
--Boot from that USB, make sure the BIOS is set to boot from USB devices, if not repeatedly click on F9 or F11 or F12 as soon as you press the power switch, that should get you the choice of bootable devices, choose USB, not UEFI-USB, if at all possible.
--Let it boot too the desktop, click on "install debian" on the desktop.
--Reboot, remove the USB.
- Method 1:
Download the attachment, unzipping it to your Downloads folder, double click on "install.sh" and choose "run in terminal" . If that does not work then type these lines in terminal:
Code:
cd Downloads sudo chmod +x install.sh ./install.sh
Press Y once when prompted and reboot when finished.
-
- Method 2:
-Open terminal and copy and paste one by one the following lines:
Code:
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get -y install gdebi software-properties-common wget linux-headers-4.19.0-9-common-rt linux-headers-4.19.0-9-rt linux-image-4.19.0-9-rt-amd64 wget http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/p/pygtksourceview/python-gtksourceview2_2.10.1-3_amd64.deb sudo gdebi python-gtksourceview2_2.10.1-3_amd64.deb sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keys.gnupg.net:80 --recv-key EF1B07FEE0EE663E - sudo apt-add-repository 'http://buildbot.linuxcnc.org/ buster master-rtpreempt' -OR, for 2.8 stable release, not both, sudo apt-add-repository 'http://buildbot.linuxcnc.org/ stretch 2.8-rtpreempt' - sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get -y install linuxcnc-uspace
-Reboot
-Enjoy

- For setting up using parallel port, click on "applications" menu on the upper left > cnc > Stepconf Wizard
- For setting up Mesa boards, click on "applications" menu on the upper left > cnc > Pncconf Wizard
Enjoy !

Additional info:
It seems the this Debian has issues with USB WIFI dongles with the Realtek hardware, so in case you see the wireless networks but it will not connect, open a terminal and paste this:
sudo ln -s /dev/null /etc/systemd/network/99-default.link

Can't see shit without my specs on a computer screen any more.
Pain killers must be messing with my head.
