I know RatOS doesn't want me to use a can bus but I'm using a can bus....I did a fresh ratos install, added an rs485 can hat to the pi and did the setup ....can0 shows up as down and I can't get it to come up. I double...triple checked all the things and still not active, but listed as down. I did a vanilla Mainsail OS install and did the things I needed to install the rs485 can hat (the same procedures as on RatOs) and can0 is up and functioning. This is a long explanation for the question, is there something in the current RatOs that keeps a can interface from functioning?

no, RatOS is just prepackaged klipper and mainsail

ok, just did a fresh ratos install this morning and the same result
4: can0: <NOARP,ECHO> mtu 16 qdisc noop state DOWN group default qlen 10
link/can

any ideas why this happens only on ratos?

no idea - we don't test installing CAN on RatOS

Do not expect any support or assistance from RatOS in case of CAN, you are alone with that At the end RatOS is just prepackaged linux distribution, you can use any other CAN guide to make it work

Thank you, I was asking specifically for the repo url that failed to detect in my previous post...or is the link you posted the url that was not detected?
blacksmithforlife
you will have to look in your moonraker config to see what repo it is pointing to
