But what version of linuxcnc are you running, Matsche? The only diff in building the sd card, from the recipe you sent a month ago, is that I installed the rt kernel BEFORE I did the apt update;apt dist-upgrade. I'll see if I can coerce dpkg into doing it again. And this is crazy, its running the rt kernel, but dpkg -V says it is NOT installed. WTF? So I'm doing it again. Operation not permitted??? I think the real error is that it wants to make a backup copy or something and there is not enough room left in /boot. although df -h /boot shows Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mmcblk0p1 63M 28M 36M 44% /boot So there is room.
