The starting point for a new build like yours will be the
Stepconf wizard.
You will find that in the CNC menu.
(This is assuming that you have all the physical wiring assembled).
There is lots of stuff that you could usefully be reading, but you probably want to see the machine moving first?
If you are new to CNC then there are two things that you need to understand. G-code and coordinate systems.
linuxcnc.org/docs/2.7/html/gcode/g-code.html
linuxcnc.org/docs/2.7/html/gcode/coordinates.html
Even if you are using a CAM system you will need to have some idea about the basic G-codes (G0, G1, G2, G3, M3, M4, M5)
I can't even guess what your first problem will be, so it's probably best to simply invite you to get back to us when you get stuck
