LinuxCNC offers a Debian-based live-CD/USB stick that is made available on https://linuxcnc.org/downloads/. This repository holds all that is needed to recreate it and serves as a public invitation to jointly develop it further.

Changes for Bookworm as per 2.9 Getting Linuxcnc Docs

  • Changed to live build for installer: --debian-installer live (installer was not installing LinuxCNC).

  • Use the repositories at: http://buildbot2.highlab.com/

  • Replaced buggy nmtray with network-manager.

  • Changed README.md to use su for lb build.

  • Added ethercat repository. To install: sudo apt update then sudo apt install ethercat-master libethercat-dev. Licencing requirements from the Ethercat Technology Group should be complied with.

  • Added QTPYVCP repository. To install: sudo apt update then sudo apt install python3-qtpyvcp

  • Added Probe Basic repository. To install: sudo apt update followed by sudo apt install python3-probe-basic

  • NOTE: External repositories provided as a convenience to users if they wish to use companion products. No software is installed by this installer.

  • NOTE: ipv6.disable=1 appended to isolinux kernel command line so installation does not stall during network config at sites with no DHCPv6 server.
