Which part of HTTP download don't you understand? http://www.aero.polimi.it/RTAI/ Get the thing, untar it, patch the kernel and off you go. Nothing's missing here. Or maybe you prefer CVS: http://cvs.rtai.org/index.cgi/ Please, point me to the missing files or tell me that the above sites don't give you packages you can download/compile/use to obtain real-time. I've been using and coding in RTAI for the past 2.5 years and I've never heard about this before. Or maybe both Wolfgang and I misunderstood your explanation and you were actually refering to RTLinux?
