I would love to see the setup.sh files converted to config-pin bbio files as here: https://github.com/machinekit/machinekit/blob/master/configs/ARM/BeagleBone/MendelMax-CRAMPS/CRAMPS.bbio
This format is kernel independent and even editable with a graphical editor: https://github.com/machinekoder/BBIOConfig else we have the exactly same problem again with the next incompatible device tree change. I have create an issue for this problem: https://github.com/machinekit/machinekit/issues/1310 I think, this would be a great task to solve by someone new who wants to contribute to Machinekit.
