Hi Charles/Nick I too am having an issue with a PRU control files not found in /sys/class/uio/uio0 >&2 error - I'm not sure it this will help but I'll explain my findings from the little testing I have done today. Yesterday I rebuilt my "bone-debian-8.5-machinekit-armhf-2016-07-18-4gb.img"

Thanks for taking the time to reply Alex, Re Q3 and using HAL to control the stepper motor. Is there some example you know of that I could review? If not, does this approach employ some sort of Trajectory Planner API, or would this approach require implementing a TP from scratch. If I
