You can use the Xenomai kernel with any of the Debian images from RCN, just install to the eMMC then update the kernel. The MachineKit images are on SD card to support LinuxCNC and it's (large set of) build dependencies. You can get a much lighter-weight system running Xenomai if that's all you are interested in. You'll probably still want to compile and install the Xenomai user-space tools (or copy the /home/linuxcnc/xenomai-2.6 folder from the MachineKit install), but the build requirements are much lighter for Xenomai than for LinuxCNC. -- Charles Steinkuehler [email protected] -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
