Hi folks, with all the attention that newer distros have been getting
lately, I'm looking in to running LinuxCNC On the Bullseye version of Raspberry Pi OS (aka Raspbian) on a Raspberry Pi 4B.

It looks super straight-forward, except for the realtime kernel (as
usual).  I don't see a modern kernel built with Preempt-RT enabled in
the raspbian bullseye package archive...

It is not recognized by the foundations church and I am black holed on their forum
for asking about it.
Does anyone know if there's a well-liked pre-built official or
community-supported Rpi4 realtime kernel somewhere?

Or do I have to reconfigure & rebuild the "official" kernel?

bullseye won't work, python 10-4 is too new.
buster works fine. As for kernel, my 4.19-whatever is doing ok and you can get an installable tarball from my web page in the sig. Dave Envall is building a pi controlled mazak with it too.

Install buster and get it running. Then pull the card and put it in a reader, mount it so you can see the /boot and /lib directories. Use mc to unpack the 28 meg tarball, you'll see a /boot tree and a lib tree. Copy both to the sd card at those locations. Put the card back in the pi and boot it up and a 'uname -a' should show
this: but with your fqdn instead of mine..

Linux rpi4.coyote.den 4.19.71-rt24-v7l+ #1 SMP PREEMPT RT Thu Feb 6 07:09:18 EST 2020 armv7l GNU/Linux

It also works fine to boot bullseye, but bullseyes python it too new. So a git clone won't build, bailing out t the configure stage.

Easy peasy otherwise. I have the src tarball too but not where you can get it. It and at least 1 patch file should get you something that will build. Let me know and I'll see if I can round up all the pieces & make
them visible.

Take care Seb.


Cheers, Gene Heskett.
