John, Don't I only need to run down through the below to install rtai? Also, isin't sudo apt-get -y dist-upgrade going to upgrade me from Xubuntu 12.04 to 14.04? I should skip that step, right?
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get -y dist-upgrade sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keys.gnupg.net --recv-key 3cb9fd148f374fef sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://linuxcnc.org/ precise base 2.7-rtai" sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get -y install linux-image-3.4-9-rtai-686-pae rtai-modules-3.4-9-rtai-686-pae sudo apt-get -y install linux-headers-3.4-9-rtai-686-pae reboot and hold the left shift key down to get to the boot menu select advanced options and pick the 3.4-9-rtai-686-pae kernel uname -r should report 3.4-9-rtai-686-pae open the synaptic package manager and remove the generic image and headers I am trying to install to a production box, not a development environment. I run headless, and thus have used Xubuntu for its small footprint. Thanks, Eric Yes I do.
