Much more verbose than the log. You might have to set scrollback thru history to 50,000 or more to see the whole thing.

Right on the pi's ssh login shell. I see 3 or 4 big commits since I last did the build/install yesterday, so its running again now. I'm doing this all except the final install, on a 240G SSD on a usb3 adaptor, for minimum stress on the u-sd card, even swap has been moved to 120G SSD. my u-sd is a 64G, df says its at 17% so it has plenty of room to wear level. > thanks > Stuart > > On Tue, Aug 4, 2020 at 12:33 AM Gene Heskett <ghesk...@shentel.net> wrote: > > On Tuesday 04 August 2020 00:56:57 Stuart Stevenson wrote: > > > Started LinuxCNC. > > > The first screen tells me to pick a machine from the list on the > > > left.
