Thank you very much, Robert, got that, and vagrant both installed on the pi! With vagrant, as used by a small program kit called RealtimePi, I just found an hour back, the claim is made it will build an installable to an u-sd card, a realtime patched version of the system contained in a std raspian.zip install placed in the same directory. But I'll make one more pass at 4.19.50-rt22 first as thats a hair newer yet. That takes around 3 to 4 hours on the pi. :( Realtime claims a bit over 6 hours for their realtime build using vagrant. So we may try both. :) Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
