Re: Linux 6.0 - 5.2

Not sure about the ability to down grade RedHat from 6.0 to 5.2

The 2 versions use vastly different kernels, but it is worth a try if you
want to run EMC. If it works you are ready to go, if it fails you just
reinstall everything with 5.2 and are only out the few minutes it takes to
copy the kernel and edit LILO.

EMC does run step and direction signals out the parallel port in addition to
running servos from an addin card. I am currently running a Camtronics 5 amp
stepper controller using EMC.
