LinuxCNC 2.92 fails to run after Stepconf

  hello,  after a major move and new workshop build I am finally trying to get my homebuilt Solsylva CNC machine up and running. I installed a new hard drive, installed linuxCNC 2.9.2 from the iso that i downloaded, then ran stepconf, using the same info that i used for my previous system under linuxCNC 2.6.  when I start linuxCNC 2.9.2 with this new configuration I get the attached error report.  any help is appreciated.

2.6 to 2.9.2 would be bad enough without throwing in rtai. There were some big changes with 2.8. It is meant to upgrade your config when it first opens.

Start by fixing the debian bug with:
sudo apt update 
sudo dpkg -P raspi-firmware
sudo apt dist-upgrade

Get preempt_rt working before trying rtai.
