No prob. start here http://linuxcnc.org/docs/2.7/html/ge...-linuxcnc.html latest version is 2.7.11

If you need to home a router with twin screws and two motors on one axis then you will need the version 2.8 master but that is not main stream yet but will work well. This would allow you to home the two motors independently.

If you have two screws and one motor then go for 2.7.11
