[Emc-users] How to
I,m totally new to Linux of any kind but I wish to use EMC2 I have downloaded the liveCD and created an image on a CD using Nero but can't seem to get it to do anything. Its supposed to be bootable but does this mean bootable in XP as well or bootable in linux and I assume that this means putting the CD in the drive and restarting the PC by swithcing off and on again. Also if I like it and by all that Ive seen on it I probably will I have a 800Mhz pentium PC with Windows 98 and a 10Gig H/D that I could dedicate to Linux and EMC2. So, how would I go about this, ie could I re-format it using Windows or DOS or does Linux use a totally different format system. In which case would I need to source another bit of software to do this or does the Linux install do this for me. Also will EMC2 only work under Ubuntu or would it also work under Mandrake 10.1 because I also have a copy of this which apparently will install alongside Windows which would be useful on my indoor PC which has 170Gig of H/D. There a few questions here but I think my first priority is to try to get the Live CD up and running and see where to go from there.

Re: [Emc-users] How to
Ubuntu is distributed over the Internet as CD image files, called ISOs. To install Ubuntu, you first need to burn its ISO file onto a CD. You need a working CD/DVD burner and an 80 minute (700 Mb) CD for this. This page explains how you can do it using Windows, Mac OS X, Ubuntu and Kubuntu. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

Re: [Emc-users] How to
Welcome, Rod Glad to hear of your interest in EMC2. There may be a few issues with Nero and burning. IMO it has to do with those other OS folk not wanting bootable stuff reproduced. After you've burned one, pop it into the reader again and look at the file structure on the disk. If there is only one file with an .iso or .img or some such extenison, Nero did not make a bootable disk. If there are 9 or so directories and a few files then you've got a good disk. I don't know how to make Nero do this but somewhere buried in the tabs or preferences there should be a bootable or direct copy ability. That done, you'll need to make certain that the sacrificial machine can boot from CDROM and has the CD reader as first boot device. These are bios settings. Once you've got it booted up you will see an install icon on the display. During that process you'll be asked if you want to save some of the old file system or can Ubuntu use the whole disk.

Re: [Emc-users] EMC2 Live
Hi Andre. It has been quite a while since I saw your name here. I've installed the Ubuntu, both 5 and 6 on several systems that had XP preinstalled. Most of time the XP survived. It does tend to startup in whatever XP considers a safe mode but lives okay after that first reboot to it. By default if you say yes it will shrink the XP partitions to about half their original size. Be sure to save any critical stuff to something else before you do the install.

Rod Welland wrote: I,m totally new to Linux of any kind but I wish to use EMC2 Excellent :) I have downloaded the liveCD and created an image on a CD using Nero but can't seem to get it to do anything. Somewhere in the Nero menus should be an option to Burn Image or similar. In NTI CD-Maker 2000, it's under the File menu. In Windows XP, you may be able to right-click the .iso file and select Burn to CD. What won't work is creating a new Data CD project, then dragging the .iso file into it. That puts the file on the CD in a Windows file system (like copying between disks), as Ray mentioned. Its supposed to be bootable but does this mean bootable in XP as well or bootable in linux and I assume that this means putting the CD in the drive and restarting the PC by swithcing off and on again. A bootable disc doesn't boot in XP or Linux. Booting is the process of initializing the computer and running software after power-up. If the BIOS of the PC can boot from CD, then there doesn't even need to be a hard disk in the system to start up. Also if I like it and by all that Ive seen on it I probably will I have a 800Mhz pentium PC with Windows 98 and a 10Gig H/D that I could dedicate to Linux and EMC2. So, how would I go about this, ie could I re-format it using Windows or DOS or does Linux use a totally different format system. In which case would I need to source another bit of software to do this or does the Linux install do this for me. Linux uses a different file system by default, the Linux/EMC2 install would set up the drive for you. Since you mentioned that tou can dedicate this PC to Linux/EMC2, the 10G drive should be plenty. Also will EMC2 only work under Ubuntu or would it also work under Mandrake 10.1 because I also have a copy of this which apparently will install alongside Windows which would be useful on my indoor PC which has 170Gig of H/D. EMC2 can be installed on many modern Linux variants, but the process can be difficult. You would need to compile your own kernel, the realtime extensions, and EMC2. This is not a task for a Linux newbie :) Ubuntu can also be installed on a PC along with Windows. This is called a dual-boot configuration. You select which system to use each time you turn on the PC. There are options in the Ubuntu install to resize existing disk partitions and install in the resulting free space. I have never done this, so I won't suggest that you do it. (Many others have done it successfully and it looks quite easy, but I can't tell you from personal experience how easy it will be :) ) There a few questions here but I think my first priority is to try to get the Live CD up and running and see where to go from there. Hoping some of you guy,s out there can help.

Thanks for the info Keith, now I just need to get the time and
experience. I have most of my coding in that w word.

Andy,
Is there anyway to add this as a feature?

This is from EMC1 interpreter experience, so some terms may have changed.
The ini file access point for the interpreter (in EMC2) was at one point in
rs274ngc_pre.cc, where you should find a function like ini_load(const char
*filename) which grabs the interpreter related ini stuff.
Declare the variable in canon.hh, and copy/paste the existing parameter grab
in the ini_load() function and modify it to get/test the ini variable you've
created.
To remove the M02 effects, look at convert_stop, in the interp_convert.cc
file. A simple if (!your_ini_flag_variable){m02_code_here} around the m02
conditional code should do the trick for what I think you're asking.

Keith Rumley
