You should read the documentation, the wiki, and the emc-users list archives. http://linuxcnc.org/docview/html/ http://wiki.linuxcnc.org http://news.gmane.org/gmane.linux.distributions.emc.user If after all this reading you have more specific questions, by all means ask. In general, the more specific the questions, the more useful the answers you will get.
