I found a copy of 1.9.2 just google around. I have it Dual booting with linuxcnc 2.7.

Now if I can configure it to work with a parallel port, I will be good.

I bought a copy on 6th October. The DVD cost $30 and the carriage was $36.54. I asked them if they couldn't just post it rather than send it as a parcel but that didn't seem to compute. Obviously the first thing I did was copy the ISO image in case the dogs tried to eat the thing. Besides, I'll be installing from a UFD as I won't have a DVD drive in my PC. I couldn't find a copy out there at the time. I could send a link if someone wants to see what's on it.

I've just taken delivery of a Jetway JNF9C-2800 Fanless Thin-ITX Motherboard, Samsung 120GB SSD, 2GB SODIMM and Black Noah 3988 Mini-ITX Case with PCI riser to house my 5i25 (from mini-ITX.com). With luck I'll install PP on that little lot and then attempt to fiddle it to support my own setup.

Getting LinuxCNC running on the old PC was a struggle for me, so I'm expecting a slow project here. I'm targeting the summer for completion but I'm not certain of the year yet Still stuck without a workshop, following moving back to Blighty last October, rather like being stuck in an open prison perhaps. Eventually it will be united with a couple of DMM Tech servos (X & Y) and a Leadshine Easy Server closed loop stepper (Z-axis) via a 7i76.

expect a slow haul , unless your experienced , it's not the easiest to work on , however when your ready

Just for reference, the DVD is actually a disk image, not an install / setup disk. It's an image of the installation, made with r-image. To create an installation, you need a fresh HDD/SSD. I haven't done it myself but I understand it can be done.

And I might be wrong but it doesn't seem to appreciate being transferred to a USB Flash Drive (UFD) - needs to be burned to a bootable DVD.

you are on the $$$$, This has been my experience.
