As Corbett  stated earlier, the debs are broken. 
 
I think the debs are now fixed after I reported a bug but I have not tested them yet.

Thanks everyone for your work.
I also had problems with the .debs, I tested the .debs updated to June 20, 2023, I followed the instructions and it works, but from the terminal if I request ethercat master, I get this message: "Inappropriate ioctl for device"
and the master is not recognized.
Thanks again !

Yes, I am getting the same error. I have lodged an issue with etherlabmaster. Initially they said they had a regression that was fixed in a later version and he reverted it in the packages for me yesterday. This lets EtherCAT load, but this error remains. Stay tuned....

Dear Fellows

I been using this installation notes from Mr. Rodw for deb  12
and I found the on Debian 12 the repository from Etherlab## for Bookworm
deb [allow-insecure=yes] download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:...rLab/Debian_Testing/ ./

is not working on fine
1 the file secure sing , but can be bypassed but
2 but on
sudo apt-get install ethercat-dkms libethercat libethercat-dev ethercat-master

has a error on the repositories by file chechsum , and I am not expert so I cannot install it

well to by pass I install the repository from deb 11
## for Bullseye
deb [allow-insecure=yes] download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:.../EtherLab/Debian_11/ ./
image missing /media/kunena/emoticons/cool.png
so on deb 12 I use the linux ethercat lib for deb 11 from etherlabimage missing /media/kunena/emoticons/kissing.png

so I continue and after some linux cnc .ini, .hal, end .xml files mistakes and cia-402 repository installation missing files

finally I make my nuc pc with ECT86 step drive x 3, and RTEC1616 IOs card working image missing /media/kunena/emoticons/silly.png

well by the moment by local lab works fine on my bridgeport cnc series 1 ,
I do not know what can happen in the future for the file mix bettween
dev12 Linux a 6.1.0.9-rt-amd64 #1 SMP PREETEM_RT debian 6.1.27-1 (2023-05-08) x86_64 with ~~/science:/EtherLab/Debian_11/
but by the moment looks ok with the screen qtdragonimage missing /media/kunena/emoticons/sideways.png

Thank you

Thanks for the guide. Incredibly helpful.

Debian Bookworm ISO, then installed LinuxCNC 2.9 as per linuxcnc.org/docs/2.9/html/getting-start...etting-linuxcnc.html

I got the "undefined symbol: ecrt_slave_config_sdo" error after following the standard guide steps in the first post of this thread..

I tried replacing realtime.mk with the revisions in the spoiler:
Code:
include ../config.mk include Kbuild cc-option = $(shell if $(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(1) -S -o /dev/null -xc /dev/null \ > /dev/null 2>&1; then echo "$(1)"; else echo "$(2)"; fi .PHONY: all clean install ifeq ($(BUILDSYS),kbuild) module = $(patsubst %.o,%.ko,$(obj-m)) ifeq (,$(findstring -Wframe-larger-than=,$(EXTRA_CFLAGS))) EXTRA_CFLAGS += $(call cc-option,-Wframe-larger-than=2560) endif $(module): $(MAKE) EXTRA_CFLAGS="$(EXTRA_CFLAGS)" KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS="$(RTLIBDIR)/Module.symvers $(RTAIDIR)/modules/ethercat/Module.symvers" -C $(KERNELDIR) SUBDIRS=`pwd` CC=$(CC) V=0 modules clean:: rm -f $(obj-m) rm -f *.mod.c .*.cmd rm -f modules.order Module.symvers rm -rf .tmp_versions else module = $(patsubst %.o,%.so,$(obj-m)) EXTRA_CFLAGS := $(filter-out -Wframe-larger-than=%,$(EXTRA_CFLAGS)) $(module): $(lcec-objs) $(CC) -shared -o $@ $(lcec-objs) -Wl,-rpath,$(LIBDIR) -L$(LIBDIR) -llinuxcnchal -lethercat -lrt %.o: %.c $(CC) -o $@ $(EXTRA_CFLAGS) -Os -c $< endif all: $(module) clean:: rm -f $(module) rm -f $(lcec-objs) install: $(module) mkdir -p $(DESTDIR)$(RTLIBDIR) cp $(module) $(DESTDIR)$(RTLIBDIR)/

That did not work - giving an error about a missing ; (or : I can't remember). There is a difference between the code in the spoiler and the code in the linked thread.

The following code worked for me. From Stormholt's post in the linked thread ( forum.linuxcnc.org/9-installing-linuxcnc...ve-config-sdo#203252 )
Code:
Note the ";)" on line 5 after "fi" - this ";)" is not present in the spoiler code in the guide.
Code:
include ../config.mk include Kbuild cc-option = $(shell if $(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(1) -S -o /dev/null -xc /dev/null \ > /dev/null 2>&1; then echo "$(1)"; else echo "$(2)"; fi ;) .PHONY: all clean install ifeq ($(BUILDSYS),kbuild) module = $(patsubst %.o,%.ko,$(obj-m)) ifeq (,$(findstring -Wframe-larger-than=,$(EXTRA_CFLAGS))) EXTRA_CFLAGS += $(call cc-option,-Wframe-larger-than=2560) endif $(module): $(MAKE) EXTRA_CFLAGS="$(EXTRA_CFLAGS)" KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS="$(RTLIBDIR)/Module.symvers $(RTAIDIR)/modules/ethercat/Module.symvers" -C $(KERNELDIR) SUBDIRS=`pwd` CC=$(CC) V=0 modules clean:: rm -f $(obj-m) rm -f *.mod.c .*.cmd rm -f modules.order Module.symvers rm -rf .tmp_versions else module = $(patsubst %.o,%.so,$(obj-m)) EXTRA_CFLAGS := $(filter-out -Wframe-larger-than=%,$(EXTRA_CFLAGS)) $(module): $(lcec-objs) $(CC) -shared -o $@ $(lcec-objs) -Wl,-rpath,$(LIBDIR) -L$(LIBDIR) -llinuxcnchal -lethercat -lrt %.o: %.c $(CC) -o $@ $(EXTRA_CFLAGS) -Os -c $< endif all: $(module) clean:: rm -f $(module) rm -f $(lcec-objs) install: $(module) mkdir -p $(DESTDIR)$(RTLIBDIR) cp $(module) $(DESTDIR)$(RTLIBDIR)/
