When I'm actively developing, I typically don't keep LinuxCNC on the SD card, but mount a remote NFS share where I usually have multiple LinuxCNC directories on various branches and/or in various states of "working". Once your LinuxCNC build directory is on a powerful machine, you can make rsync backup copies, LVM snapshots, or whatever you want. LinuxCNC has a "run in place" feature, from the directory where you built the code, just run "scripts/rip-environment" and you'll be setup to run the build in that directory. Different shell windows can be setup to run different versions of LinuxCNC. If you want to do this, make sure to comment out where the rip-environment script is run at the end of /home/linuxcnc/.bashrc! -- Charles Steinkuehler [email protected]
