Abstract The beam commissioning of the linac for the boron neutron capture therapy of Ibaraki prefecture (i-BNCT) has been started. The accelerator of i-BNCT consists of the 3-MeV RFQ and 8-MeV DTL. The design of RF structure of them is based on the J-PARC linac. After the first demonstration of neutron production on December 2015, significant modifications to the linac were given in order to increase the operation stability and the beam power. The progress of the beam commissioning of the i-BNCT will be presented.
