Greetings all; I have a pi running stretch with an rt-preempt kernel so it can run linuxcnc, which according to my tests so far it should do it nicely, its realtime enough to handle servo machines with a 1 kilohertz update rate, jitter is about 29 microseconds.
But I've followed the output of amcheck and it now reports no errors, although the excludes file is empty, something I'll need to fix. But right now I need to reach back about 10 days and recover my /home/pi/linuxcnc directory which contains the configs and nc_files to run this 1500 lb lathe. But it won't let me run it on the client. On this host, it won't let me setdisk to /home/pi Session: gene@coyote:~$ sudo amrecover Daily [sudo] password for gene: AMRECOVER Version 3.5.1.git.19364c7b.

That was on --06-08, and there were about 4 incrementals since. How do I do this? Thank you.
