I am a little bit confused about what to download, the one Rodw put on google drive or the one that was posted on 03/08
 

The ISO on the downloads page has been updated with my image.. 
Get it from here becasue its now official
linuxcnc.org/downloads/

 



I used the latest I could find
 

Very sorry. I don't have write access to the website so depend on others who I give the ISO to.
Please try my ISO in Google drive, I know it works as I have tested it on real hardware.

Last night I had the same problem on Raspy 5,
I must have solved it with --fix-missing
as it tells you at the bottom in the terminal
hi

I think I actually managed to get a nice install.
tomorrow will know for sure... there were some hickups but after trying to get linuxcnc installed on my system I realize that I had a crash-course in trouble-shooting and I learned a lot about the terminal while trying...
I remember that twincat in the early days also was a wildcard.
fingers crossed for tomorow.
I will make a post of all my adventure when I will get the plasma table running... with everything in detail so noobs like me don't have to go thru the torture

I used the one rodw put on google drive
I had the same issues with the one on the linuxcnc download page
MANY THX TO RODW !!!

Yes, print screen works on most distros, although XFCE used by LinuxCNC version of Debian did not work but it had screenshot in the main menu somewhere.

I pushed the prtsc button on the keyboard and it works
