You need to set large min-ferror and ferror limits (an inch / 25mm or so) so you can see
the motor behavior (you have about a 50% chance of the wrong feedback direction and
runaway so of course this needs to be addressed first.)

Also make sure you have working drive enables or motors disconnected from linear axis
as a runaway linear axis can be dangerous/destructive.
 

I am trying to upgrade linuxcnc to 2.9.3 I was running 2.7.x I am using all the same hardware but when the parallel port tries to load it gets the I/O ports at e000 [disabled] error. On the old version is was running a port 0xe000 and irq 3
