Re: [Emc-users] Raspberry Pi PREEMPT-RT

[andy p. <bod...@gm...>]

I am baffled by this discussion.

LinuxCNC relies on a real-time kernel in one of three flavours. RTAI,
Xenomai or PREEMPT-RT.

LinuxCNC supplies either RTAI or PREMPT-RT as part of the Live-CD
images for x86 and amd-64 platforms but does not supply such kernels
for ARM.
So anyone wanting to run LinuxCNC on ARM has to find a kernel first.
I believe that Machinekit might supply pre-built RT kernels for ARM.

I posted the link as it seems that (as of March) there is now a set of
pre-patched kernel sources for the Rasberry Pi which should very much
simplify the process or Pi-users.
