*You can use the Xenomai kernel with any of the Debian images from RCN,just install to the eMMC then update the kernel* Whereas I m quite ok with the use of Xenomai, I'm not really at ease with the way to build it, the Readme<http://git.xenomai.org/xenomai-2.6.git/tree/ksrc/arch/arm/patches/README> is clear but some steps are missings for me.
*You can get a much lighter-weight system running Xenomai if that's all you are interested in* Exactly my purpose, I'll stay in user space (no RTDM driver) *You'll probably still want to compile and install the Xenomai user-spacetools (or copy the /home/linuxcnc/xenomai-2.6 folder from the MachineKitinstall), but the build requirements are much lighter for Xenomai thanfor LinuxCNC* If I've understood what you said, I'd better have to copy from the built image* /home/linuxcnc/xenomai-2.6, *but that won't suffice to have eMMC working. 2014-02-03 Charles Steinkuehler <char...@steinkuehler.net>: > On 2/3/2014 9:38 AM, David Lewin wrote: > > Thanks a lot Charles it helps me a lot. > > > > As I m somewhat surprised by these results -even if they are in user > space- > > I'd like to get more familiar with the build, and being able to put the > > Machinekit or Xenomai image directly in eMMC to avoid SD accesses , > hoping > > to have better latency results. > > You can use the Xenomai kernel with any of the Debian images from RCN, > just install to the eMMC then update the kernel. > > The MachineKit images are on SD card to support LinuxCNC and it's (large > set of) build dependencies.
