Hello

My turn to request some help.
Brand new installation with the latest ISO from the Linuxcnc download section version 2.9.3 PREMPT-RT

paul@mill:~$ sudo apt install  linuxcnc-ethercat
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package linuxcnc-ethercat 


and same for:

sudo apt install ethercat-master libethercat-dev  linuxcnc-ethercatReading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package ethercat-master
E: Unable to locate package libethercat-dev
E: Unable to locate package linuxcnc-ethercat
I tried the mokutil stuff:sudo mokutil --import /var/lib/dkms/mok.pub
EFI variables are not supported on this system

sudo mokutil --sb-state
EFI variables are not supported on this system



I also tried the ecat.sh script from the other topic:

paul@mill:~/Downloads$ sudo ./ecat.sh
[sudo] password for paul:
sudo: ./ecat.sh: command not found

paul@mill:~/Downloads$ ls -l
total 4
-rw-r--r-- 1 paul paul 726 Dec  5 21:45 ecat.sh


Any idea of what should I do?

Thanks you in advance

Hi,

Looks your sources.list is not ok.

$ sudo thunar

Then find and edit the ~/etc/apt/sources.list
Code:
# See https://wiki.debian.org/SourcesList for more information. deb http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm main contrib non-free non-free-firmware deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm main contrib non-free non-free-firmware deb http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm-updates main contrib non-free non-free-firmware deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm-updates main contrib non-free non-free-firmware deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security/ bookworm-security main contrib non-free non-free-firmware deb-src http://security.debian.org/debian-security/ bookworm-security main contrib non-free non-free-firmware

# Fetch sources list.
$ sudo apt get update
# Check if source excists:
$ sudo apt-get install --dry-run ethercat-master

When you downloaded the script, you did not edit the file name to remove the .txt ending
It told you it could not find the file, ls would list the files
