Upgraded to 2.7.13 -- W T F --

When I get so far as to update grub >>>> i915.enable_rc6=0 does not exist.

I give up with Debian on this PC.

Will reinstall Mint 18.3 and try to install RT and LinuxCNC

Found some info on installing Debian Stretch on your little PC.

Update BIOS to version 50
Set BIOS boot configuration to "Linux" (necessary for newer kernels)
Install Debian netinst image and nonfree firmware

A great bit of info from JT about install fron the netinst cd.
Ignore the first line regarding the Wheezy install and precede with the Debian 9 instructions. Which covers the Recommendation to in the 2 above links to Install Debian netinst image and nonfree firmware

My BIOS is version 54
downloadmirror.intel.com/26220/eng/PY_0055_ReleaseNotes.pdf
Have boot set to Linux

Will follow the Debian net install and see what happens.

Later...

OK done that and the first I run is latency-histogram --nobase >>> FREEZING!

So it's boots ok and the graphics is good.

Running the debian rt kernel ok, apart from the latency-histogram ?
Linuxcnc was installed as per JT's instructions, should be version 2.7.13 ?

Before you run the latency-histogram run [ (may have to use su or sudo)
That will display the messages and then start with an empty buffer so anything new wont be lost in a 1000 other messages.
Have you tried
When you go to close the latency-histogram window it does close ?

Is there anything in dmesg that looks odd ?

Did manage to get grub.cfg edited with isolcpus=2,3 before freezing again.
Did manage to get Axis to run and Gmoccapy after reboot
Now running latency test with 6 GLX gears

Will take a short brake and get my morning shower now that my water is heated up

So far so good, will do more extensive test during the day.

Nothing in dmesg and yes window closes OK

Now running Axis sim demo and it looks OK

Now running my old HDD with edit grub.cfg = added isolcpus=2,3 and no more hanging as it looks now anyways, still testing PC here in office before I go down to my Lathe.
