First lets talk about the images.
1: They are based on Debian repos built by a collection of custom scripts.
2: Whilst some images have been written to SD card via RPi Imager Balena Etcher is recommended.
2a: If you use Linux there are plenty of other tools, Ubuntu\Mint has USB Image writer.
3: If you use the RPi Imager any adding of user or wifi info does not work. As the image is a custom one, only the kernel is built from RPi Sources.
4: If you are using an Rpi5 & a 7c80 0r 7c81 the driver to be loaded is hm2_spix
5: If you are using an RPi4 & a 7c80 or 7c81 the driver to be loaded is hm2_rpsipi
6: The images now have the SPI interface enabled by default.
7: Location of config.txt  /boot/broadcom/config.txt once again this is a custom build.
8: raspi-config is not in the image, the tool to use is menuconfig.
9: The default username is cnc.
10: The default password is cnc.
11: The images are not meant to be a fully fledged daily driver Operating System, the are just enough to run Linuxcnc.

Thank you! Have you tried to install ethercat on these images? I can't get it to work. However on a older image (with older kernel) you have posted it works without issue.

You know, that's not really helpful at all. Why is it no one wants to give any info that may help others diagnose a problem ? It's like pulling teeth, some kind of demented game.
