BDI-4.48 is now available for download at http://www.cncgear.com/EMC/BDI/ or
ftp://bdi4emc.ourproject.org/pub/bdi4emc/ The md5sum can be verified at
http://ourproject.org/moin/Where_to_get_it or from the bdi-4.48.md5 file.
This release is intended to be the last for six months or so until emc2
stabilises (also gives me a chance to work on a couple of text mode install
bugs). The latest CD includes:
* 2.6.16.18 kernel pre-patched with RTAI-3.3
* wireless tools and a few modules (madwifi & ndiswrappers) for those that
need them (optional package selection)
* EMC with the addition of Matt Timmermans' quickstep driver.
* Jeff Epler's python based Axis GUI (ver: 1.2.1-3)
* bwidget and all the tools needed to compile and run emc2 (source included)
* Synergy CAD/CAM from http://www.webersys.com/
* samba client and server packages
* two lightweight window managers (evilwm & xfce4) as well as KDE
For a full list of packages, please see
http://ourproject.org/moin/Package_list.
Minimum computer spec: 400MHz Pentium class processor, 128MB RAM, and 2Gig IDE
disk - 256MB RAM is a recommended minimum, and the bigger the disk, the
better. A CDROM drive that supports booting from CD is also required as there
is no support for boot floppies.
The CD is currently a 616Meg download, so there is space for additional
packages - Some 50Meg can be made available for extra applications.. Please
feel free to nominate your favourite "must have", or perhaps the space can be
used for documentation.
Regards, Paul.
