I’m finally getting somewhere. I kept getting nowhere so I decided to start 
with a clean slate before diving in a bleeding edge branch.
That’s the future thing to try when I have a working something. Easier to 
compare about what’s not working.

basically i 
- copied the ~/linuxcnc folder to ~/linuxcnc-dev 
- downloaded lineardeltakins kinematics files from jepler branch
- changed the Makefile so they would compile (who had imagined I copy-paste 
with vi faster than with the mouse :-) )
- cd to /src 
- $ .autogen.sh
- $ ./configure --with-xenomai --with-posix --with-platform=beaglebone
- $ make
- $ sudo make setuid
- $. ../scripts/rip-environment

now i commented out the line in ~.bashrc but somehow the configuration path 
keeps pointing to the original ~linuxcnc/ directory
is that a known issue? I checked and tried changing in /scripts/linuxcnc the 
path but no avail.

as a quick and dirty solution i set op my .hal and .ini files with paths to my 
development folder and placed them in the original folder. This work and loads 
the lineardeltakins kinematics.

Tomorrow I’ll research the homing and setting of the variables (Delta Radius, 
offsets etcetera) of the kinematics thru the .ini file
