Delete or omit (by adding # in front of it) the line trying to load lcec twice.

Try Linux Mint Debian Edition 6
www.linuxmint.com/download_lmde.php
Try the live version, if everything works, almost always it will work after installing it on the drive.
To install LinuxCNC use the same
sudo apt install linuxcnc-uspace

finshed installing.. reboots..... no operating system installed.

*slams head on desk*

Now what? its the only disk in there.

github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/blob/master...smac/machine.tcl#L83

the error says db_arc-ok.out does not exist ,

the qtplasmac_comp.hal needs those debounce pins

github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/blob/master...tplasmac_comp.hal#L8

you need to set up those debounce pins to use qtplasmac
github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/blob/master...smac/machine.tcl#L83

Thank you. I made onother step towards spinning this motor because of that for sure!
I thing I got my XML wrong now.
Slaves:

XML I got from MWalz but I changed slave idx from 0 to 3
I'm not sure but it is looks like logical thing to me.

Should I change something in Basic.hal or this is my XML wrong?
Will appreciate any help guys.

no wired connection.
fixed now. this is my frustration with linux. it said you are missing this file, put it on a usb and continue. NOWHERE does it say no, don't do that at all, go get this .deb file of intel stuff instead.

They first make it deliberately difficult, then make the instructions deliberately obtuse assuming everyone already knows everything there is to know about linux.

And then they wonder why it never really makes more headway with the masses.

Well that was a waste of several hours for nothing.

I did not know it was a wifi card. Why don't you just plug to a wired network until lts installed? I never use wifi for installations.
Trixie should support it as its up to 2024 version

sudo apt install firmware-iwlwifi should do the trick on Trixie.
packages.debian.org/search?suite=trixie&...mes&keywords=iwlwifi
 

iwlwifi-2030-6.ucode

I have no idea. What is the driver? Link? is it supported in later kernels?

Yeah this seems like trading one problem for many more problems. haha.

I just need to figure out how to make it read this driver. can you not just stick it onto the installer usb like you do with windows drivers?

You could try installing Trixie CD  which is now in alpha release
www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/
Once you sort out your network install linuxcnc from their repos
 sudo apt install linuxcnc-uspace linuxcnc-uspace-dev
This should also install PREEMPT_RT
This will get you a very late version of 2.9.3 which is basically the same as 2.9.4

Then to hook up the Ethercat repos, try this script
forum.linuxcnc.org/ethercat/53785-instal...thercat-repositories
and click through to the install instructions in that link

This could be a bit experimental as Trixie is using the 6.12 kernel which was not supported by etherlabmaster. But I raised an issue with them that should have fixed the issue 2 days ago.
