I just put the brain dead LinuxCNC distribution onto an SD card. Then booted and pulled the ini and hal files from the PC into the proper folder. I commented out the pendant since I didn't want to muck around with whether the Pi had a driver.
My only real grumble which I think is more Linux than LinuxCNC is that the desktop ICON when clicked always tells me that this is an executable script and how do I want to open it. Right clicking on it doesn't give me the option to say always run and stop asking me that stupid question. Can't see any reason as to why you'd want to install LinuxCNC it using apt-get. Way too much work.
