So Rtai is not the problem. But the EMC2 bundled in that is just to old.
So the question is how to compile EMC from source on puppy.
If you have a working Puppy Linux emc install with rtai kernel, but want to upgrade EMC that should be a lot easier.
The place to start will be downloading an emc source package, put it in
/usr/src/ and from the
../emc-versionxx/src directory run
./configure --enable-run-in-place and then each time it finds an un-met dependency, download that and run configure again.
There will probably be quite a lot of them, I don't know how much quite basic stuff is included in the distro.
Once a makefile is generated,
make, make setuid, and then to run in place
. ./scripts/emc-environment and
emc.
If it works OK you can use it like that or can go back and
make clean then
./configure --prefix=/usr, make, make install
Your problem is likely to be the library versions included in PL being too old for the EMC version you are trying to compile, which is why I was thinking towards getting the newest version of PL that will run on your hardware and starting from there.
In fact I have no allegiance towards PL at all and would probably rather have a debian based distro if possible, just for sheer familiarity and for ease of updating.
