LinuxCNC on Raspberry Pi 5

6.1.69 Fully preempt kernel
SPI enabled by default
Linuxcnc 2.9 built from git repo today just uspace & dev packages no docs
Mesaflash built from source today, version 3.5.10
Instead of xfce I built the image with Mate, std debian config looks different to std Mint install.





Tested mesaflash to just get the pins from my 7c81 clone tested ok
Test loading the hm2_spix driver for the rpi via a halrun session ok
Quick latency test ok

Thank you! Will try it out on friday.

@cornholio I'm sure I'm just stupid... but I can't seem to get past the first login/pw check? No matter what I setup in the rpi imager, it always tells me that the password is wrong.. I have also tried all default passwords (like root/root & pi/raspberry..) any idea?

These images aren't based on the raspios, they are based on Debian bookworm.
I'm actually surprised the RPi imager worked with the image. Usually balena etcher or some other utility is required.

works now! thanks yeah the RPi imager can be used with a custom image and works like balena then.

Oh ok, some users have reported issues with other images with RPi imager.
