Do you have anything in /lib/modules with a slightly different name?

Did you read this post earlier in this thread?

forum.linuxcnc.org/ethercat/45336-etherc...-step-by-step#237567

That should fix it.

Rod,

Things have changed in the last year or so... Yesterday was my birthday so I decided to do a full EtherCAT build from scratch. Put on Buster 10, then RIP of LCNC, Started to build the EC-Debianize and then found that the Mercurial servers were not there.... Got confused..

Then looked up that it has migrated to Gitlab.

So, I decided to follow your path and it was seamless, very easy. Put the master on in no time and have slaves recognized. Will build the driver tonight.

Anyway, will be hard not to do a
sudo update-ethercat-config
after adding the hardware address... it's burned in my brain LOL

Hi Rod,

I followed these instructions several times  and, everything worked perfectly. Tried to install today and I get an error saying that no public key is available. Any idea if something has something changed? This is a fresh install of the Debian buster Linuxcnc iso.

Kind regards,
Dan

Actual error
Code:
GPG error: https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/bone11111:/branches:/science:/EtherLab/Debian_10 ./ InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY A08216C4FF0D8EF7 W: The repository 'https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/bone11111:/branches:/science:/EtherLab/Debian_10 ./ InRelease' is not signed. N: Data from such a repository can't be authenticated and is therefore potentially dangerous to use.

I've added the line to the sources.list file and the ethercat.gpg file is there after the KEYRING commands.  Not sure what is going on... never failed at this point before.

Dan, some things may have changed with the security
Follow the instructions here (click on show more)
build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:bon...hes:science:EtherLab
Code:
KEYRING=/usr/share/keyrings/ethercat.gpg && curl -fsSL https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/bone11111:/branches:/science:/EtherLab/Debian_10/Release.key | gpg --dearmor | sudo tee "$KEYRING" >/dev/null  
and in sources.list
Code:
deb [trusted=yes] http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/bone11111:/branches:/science:/EtherLab/Debian_10/ ./
Originally, the instructions here did not give me a good key and I bumbled through
sudo apt update was generating a warning today, now its not.

Still waiting to see if it will install on my chromebook...
