Questions about Zen Toolworks 7x12 Milling Package

Hi everyone.

I just got a Zen Toolworks 7x12 Milling Package from my professor to work with him on a project. and I have no idea how to run Linux CNC on the Milling Package. Also any piece of advice on how to use the milling (programing language to learn or something like that).

Thanks.

Do you need help configuring LinuxCNC, or is the machineconfigured and working and you need help with G-code programming?

Or do you need help understanding what the two things above mean, and why they are different?
