Michael Why would we need the developer enviroment on a running beaglebone/machinekit? Once it is running it can be left alone on the eMMc and boot off a big memory card for development. Or is it a case of when you have compiled linuxcnc,it will not run without the developer enviroment.
I think as charles mentioned to me,What we need is a pre-built package from linuxcnc so it can just be installed through apt etc.without all the docs and manuals and other redundant stuff. I will be quite happy when i have it running right to lock it down,and only make a new image when substantial updates come along. The whole reason i switched from mach3 was to get away from computers breaking down in harsh workshop/garage enviroments every winter. The memory card image is the only weak link in what is a fantastic bit of kit. I now use it every day in a production enviroment and i am sure it will only get better.
