There is no explicit ARM dependency and hence support I could think of since all inline assembly is history in this branch there is a platform flag: ./configure --with-platform=[beaglebone|raspberry|PC] - this really only drives the set of driver components to build start with this, which is the most current: https://github.com/mhaberler/linuxcnc/tree/unified-build-candidate-3 this outline will help: http://static.mah.priv.at/public/UnifiedBuild.html if you want to build for the BB, you need to merge Charles' tree onto ubc3 which contains the BB-specific configs and some modules: https://github.com/cdsteinkuehler/MachineKit --- I do have an Odroid U2 and it performs very well as a platform; as others have discovered with their favorite boards, the primary issue is finding/building an appropriate realtime kernel. RT-PREEMPT ARM support is less than stellar. I think there's one out there but I havent tried it. -m > > Thanks and best regards, > > EBo -- > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Android is increasing in popularity, but the open development platform that > developers love is also attractive to malware creators.
