Coding is good, but there's a lot of work to be done in tweaking the configuration (both LinuxCNC/HAL and the setup of the distribution in general), and documentation, HOWTOs, or general spreading awareness are all appreciated! > My target system will primarily be a 3D printer, and occasionally > it will be used to drill and mill PCBs.

One thing I've been thinking of doing is a Beagle Bone to Ramps cape (tentatively named CapeR) that would let folks just swap out their Arduino for a BeagleBone. It would mostly just be the two appropriate connector sets with wires tying them together, and maybe a few protection or voltage conversion parts to deal with the lower voltages on the BeagleBone.

This looks fantastic! The image is downloading now, and I hope to have some time this weekend to play with it. I dabbled with LinuxCNC a few years ago, and the 3D printing thing is giving me an excuse to work with it again. I'd like to find some ways to contribute. As someone who has a lot of years experience with Linux and programming, there is probably something I can do. My target system will primarily be a 3D printer, and occasionally it will be used to drill and mill PCBs. At this time, I'll disconnect my RAMPS board from the Arduino and use that as the interface. I know it's not an exact drop-in, but it should work to get started. Thanks for getting this set up.
