thank you. at the time i was trying to get a working configuration. i ended up getting it working without installing the mesact, but i will keep that in mind if i need it in the future.

Another option is to use the text installer > expert mode and manually configure the network, post installation this can be changed to DHCP or left as a static address.

Haven't noticed the file copy issue but DHCP seems an issue. Currently installing 2.9.2 in a VBox Machine. Have noticed this on a couple of machines that previously had no issue. Using a DHCP server on a pfSense router. Previous Linuxcnc ISO didn't show this behaviour. Basically the install stall at configuring the network, tho there is no issue with running the live version, IP address is fine via DHCP

Have had to go through the "expert text installer" setup and config IP manually. Installation went ok, no issues copying files, one annoying thing is 3 of the 6 launchers of the lower panel are empty when booted to GUI.

All this has been done with the ISO being downloaded a few times, so just not operating on a single download. A mate of mine has also seen this behaviour.

Previously used the a net install image and did a manual install of Linuxcnc.

So I can confirm there has been no issues copying files the auto configuring of the network is an issue during install.

Post installation changing from a static address to one via DHCP works fine.

Seems strange, that's all I can say.

The boards I've tested have been a M73 ThinkStation and an Asrock J3355B-ITX. Haven't tried my Odroid as that has a stable setup, don't have a spare driver for it and it's a pain to access it in the enclosure.

Hi,

I did a few presettings and it now starts ok.

This was a good practice. When i loaded lcevette's gcode file, it was loading about 150 lines. Not all the lines.
So the interpreter was waiting for "reset()", to dump more gcode lines. This now works.

And there was a tiny bug, related to no validation of gcode segments. So i added gcode validation that checks
if line has lenght, the circle is a circle and if it's an arc. Now i think less bug's may remain.

I need a volunteer !!!
Is someone willing to only make a gui with a designer? You don't have to have coding skills, only make the design.
It would be awesome if we can create high end controller gui's like fanuc, siemens, etc you name it.
But i need help. Eventually you may ask for public gifts yourself, In fact you did work.

So now the c++ app is running. We now can concentrate on the gui waypoints further on this day. To
look if we can do a point overlay test with some kind of curve.

Yes, I am aware of that. But question is more like where to put this expression, so that probe basic gets the value from INI to tool touch off parameters.

Not sure if this is what you are looking for but by default you should be able to access values from the ini file in gcode using this format
