Rob has done a good job here building a system based on the imager for the pi I have been working on. https://github.com/rodw-au/rpi-img-builder-lcnc which I mentioned in an issue here (be sure to checkout the linuxcnc branch) https://github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/issues/2349#issuecomment-1704006992 I've been held up with some unrelated hardware issues but my repo is working.
I've had some amazing support from Cornelius who developed the upstream repository I use. One thing he added on my request allows recording a commit number in userdata.txt. This lets us match the raspberry kernel to the latest Preempt_RT kernel version (6.1.46). To build an image, just follow the instructions in instructions.txt <https://github.com/rodw-au/rpi-img-builder-lcnc/blob/linuxcnc/instructions.txt> If you do run this, the kernel menuconfig will be displayed. Just escape out of it and continue. we use a custom defconfig so it is not required. To stop it from being displayed, set MENUCONFIG="0" in userdata.txt <https://github.com/rodw-au/rpi-img-builder-lcnc/blob/linuxcnc/userdata.txt#L8> The RT kernel and its headers are saved in the output folder. The last step I want to do is to also save the linuxcnc .debs in the same folder Rod Webster *1300 896 832* +61 435 765 611 Vehicle Modifications Network www.vehiclemods.net.au On Fri, 8 Sept 2023 at 14:54, Rob M <ozzyro...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi all, > I've recently been building and testing some Bookworm based Raspberry Pi4 > images with consultation with Rodw over at the forum. > I've gotten to a stage now where I am chroot into RPi4 root file system and > build packages of Linuxcnc using QEMU suitable for installing om a > Raspberry PI.
