Linuxcnc error

im fairly sure its loading 2.8, its present in the error file saying linuxcnc 2.8 and also when I go to open linuxcnc with the orac configuration for a second the linuxcnc small screen comes up saying loading and it says 2.8.
as for not loading linuxcnc motion is there a way of checking this?

what i found strange is i got some notes on a usb telling me to start linuxcnc through terminal emulator typing a code but this didnt work and i couldnt understand why you would need to as linuxcnc is in the applications menu and a short cut on the desktop.

ill take the side off the computer and check the board in there is seated correctly. ive checked all wires are tight and the board has power. i haven't checked the voltage on home pins when powering machine or linuxcnc so i could do this to see what happens. all supplies seem to be on and working. 3ph converter is all powered up as well as all the mesa boards and relay boards. when the machine is turned on and linuxcnc is loaded you can here the motor noise change for a split second before error screen so its trying to do something. everything seems to be good with the machine, so from what i can see either the machine is wired up wrong or the config is not right to the machine or as state may be something isnt loading correctly.

Can we see what is in the usb regarding the terminal?

thats gone striaght over my head im afraid, what do you mean?

LOL
Sorry was on the phone and busy hauling my new/very old lathe to a friends workshop as i have no space for it for now.
You mentioned there is something in that USB pertaining to writing something on the terminal. Can you copy and paste here what htose lines are?
Thank you.

./start-Linuxcnc.sh
That's what I was told to write in the emulator to start Linux cnc. Doesn't work.

Something strange happened tonight when I tried it I didn't get home pin does not exists I got joint 0 vel pin doesn't exist. Then the second time and any time after that it came back.

Didn't get chance to look inside pc to check board is seated right I'll do that tomorrow
