On loadrt hostmot2,
Sebastian,
The line it is apparently choking on is:
Loadrt hm2_5i20 config=firmware=hm2/5i20/SVST8_4.BIT num_stepgens=2
num_pwmgens=1 num_encoders=0 enable raw.
I also removed the enable raw and got the same error.
The preceding line,
loadrt hostmot2
seems to work.
Here is the suspicious
Sebastian,
Yes, I know. It does have a 5i20 board in it as well.

I just reread this... Does your new test computer have a 5i20 card in it?
If not, the driver won't load.
Or, more correctly, the driver will load but wont export any HAL objects
until you hot-plug an AnyIO board.

That did it. Embarrasingly, it's the same kind of bug as bit me just
recently... You told it to use zero encoders, and it still tried to
poke at it.
If you can stand turning on one encoder
Sebastian,
Yep, that got it.

If you can stand turning on one encoder instance (num_encoders=1) it'll
work. If not, try Trunk,
