I've been thinking you are referring to trying to run linuxcnc, but I think you might be talking about pncconf?
Is this the error you are getting?:
If so, I think it's as "simple" as putting the firmware files in that folder. Firmware files are located here in the "Specification" tab:
store.mesanet.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=65
Though I am not exactly sure which files/folders go where, and how (it's not as simple as dragging and dropping into lib/firmware). Someone familiar with pncconf will have to provide better guidance here.
The other option might be to ignore the error, use 5i25 to make your config, and then manually change the config files to reference 5i23.

the problem is that.
sudo apt-get install hostmot2-firmware-5i23
could not find hostmot2-firmware-5i23 package.

Trust me Tom 
the path was right, double slash was just in the message. the hm2 folder in usr / lib / firmware did not exist. i copied hm2 from buster 2.9 master disk on usb stick and with root file manager on mx 19 put it in the right place it works regularly. sorry I didn't think about it before but this problem never occurred. the 5i23 will be old but runs servo threads at 8 khz
