Have you executed pncconf? If not, then the whole install is un-configured. Setting up a new install while using that 3 board combination IS a complex process that requires intimate knowledge of how the system was setup in order that it be duplicated using more modern syntax. So, whoever did it for you in the first place, or someone with similar skills will have to come to your site and do it again. I am not that person, and never having used that board combination myself, I can't do any more than ask the std troubleshooting questions. I asked you to show us an "ls -lR" of the linuxcnc/configs directory tree and you have not even done that. That was so that we might be able to guess which file we wanted to see. So there was a reason to ask you to do that, but you have refused. Without some clues, we are as lost as you are.
You were asked to send your ~/aram/linuxcnc/configs/machine_name/machine_name.hal file, where "machine_name? is what you see in the top border of the axis display as something similar to "axis.ngc - AXIS 2.5.4-30-g80efa5f on my-mill-atom-3" In my case then we would want to see, from that ~/home/aram/linuxcnc/config/my-mill-atom-3/my-mill-atom-3.hal. And I would like to see that same file (machine_name adjusted of course) from the original 2.2.4 install, the one that worked. That machine_name is totally unknown to us, so there is no way we can tell you what file it is. Its obvious to us all by now that it was NOT YOU that set it up and made it run nearly a decade ago, and that you are going to have to get that person to come back and do it again. And the nature of free software is that while it is free, the labor of knowledgeable people who can make it work is not.
