Hi all,<br>

what is the reason for this? <br>
<br>
According to man systemd-sysv-generator all you have to do is to install the SysV script into /etc/init.d as usually and reload the config:<br>
$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload<br>
This will create a service file under /run/systemd/generator.late/ethercat.service which can be enabled for autostart as you wrote.<br>
<br>
By the way, the EtherCAT master also comes with a proper service file. I didn't test it though since the init.d script works fine for me om Debian 9.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
Christoph<br>

<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">We have been using etherLabs etherCAT stack on Debian Wheezy with a Xenomai kernel for some time now. For reasons outside of ethercat we want to move to Stretch (Debian 9) using the RT_PREEMPT kernel.
I have the stack up and running, but some system differences are causing me some difficulties. I have been reading articles, but was wanting to know if someone here has already gone through the pain and would be willing to share their work.</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">First of all, I have found that although the UDev directories are still there, they are all empty and UDev seems to be deprecated. The UDev rule, 99-EtherCAT.rules, which contains the line “KERNEL=="EtherCAT[0-9]*",
MODE="0664"” no longer seems to have any effect. Anyone know the new procedure to set the file mode for the EtherCAT devices?</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Second, they have switched to systemd. I have just been running the sbin/ethercatctl script to start and stop the service. Anyone know the magic mojo to add it to the system so I can use systemctrl and
thus be able to have it start on system startup?</span></p>
