Hi John,


Hmmm,   I downloaded that image, or at least one withthe same name  from linucnc, and that one failed on a repos

not being available.

I'll try it again and down load the one you mentioned, maybe it is different.


How long ago did you install that?


thanks,


Ron

Specifically
   linuxcnc-2.7.14-wheezy.iso

The advantage of the live system is you can try it on your hardware before you 
install to the hard drive.

I'm running it on a dual boot PC where I have WIN-XP and LinuxCNC.  In the 
basic form I have both working from a single parallel port.  I can expand with 
the MESA 7i92H or the USB SmoothStepper coupled to my PMDX-126 BoB.

Then when you are ready, just reboot the CD and choose install.  Only one DVD 
is needed.

I tried installing linuxcnc-stretch-uspace-amd64-r13.iso too,� doesn't
seem to work either.


Is there a working version of linuxcnc somewhere?

             Hello all,



             I thought I'd try linuxcnc, and see howthat works.

             (I have a paxton/patterson mill and lathe that I haven't used in
forever).

             I downloaded the linuxcnc iso and burned a disc, however it
seems it
             wants another CD , or from what I read have Ubuntu or so
installed?
             I saw Ubuntu 10.04 mentioned, but isn't that somewhat old?

             Do I install that first and then the linuxcnc CD?


             Also, is there a version that can be installed/compiled on
RHEL/Centos?,
             has someone tried that?


             thanks,


             Ron

             I downloaded the Debian Stretch iso a few weeks ago and threw
it on a
             machine a couple days ago.  I went on fine except for the installer
not
             wanting to work with my USB network dongle (works fine with
the live
             version).  I got around that by using the text installer which lets
you
             bypass the network setup easily.  Try either the Stretch or
Wheezy setups.

             Hello Dave,


             I downloaded "LinuxCNC 2.7.14 Debian 7 Wheezy
             <http://www.linuxcnc.org/iso/linuxcnc-2.7.14-wheezy.iso>"�
             from this page "http://linuxcnc.org/downloads/";
             <http://linuxcnc.org/downloads/> but when I run it, it
             asks for another disk.� I was wondering if that is a
             regular Debian iso, or something different.


             I am not too familiar with Debian distros,� I pretty
             much exclusively work with RHEL and Centos etc.


             If there is another iso I need,� where do I get it?� If
             not then what is it asking for?


             thanks,


             Ron


         It should be a regular iso that installs the OS and a set of
         apps including LinuxCNC.� If you just boot it you should get
         a live cd version of Debian and the apps.� No idea why it is
         asking for a cd.

         Dave

         Hmm�� when I use the first option,� it boots from the CD,�
         live CD style,� but it doesn't show me an option to install it.


         Ron


     The install is a boot option . I haven't found it in the live
     version.� I was used to Ubuntu and expected to find it in the
     live version too.

     Dave

     I'd rather have it work on Centos, or RHEL,� but oh well.�� when I
     am installing it with the graphical option it complains about not
     being able to find security.debian.org
     <http://security.debian.org> (but I can ping it from another
     machine).� It says I can skip it,� it did that before.

     I'll just see and try again.


It won't find any of the wheezy repos without doing some unnatural
acts.� Wheezy went end of life a while ago.� Stretch is the current
release.� It is Debian 9.

Dave
