Assuming your using Debian 9 my instructions for installing different versions of LinuxCNC are here . You will need to open the Synaptic Package Manager from the System > Administration menu and in Settings > Repositories uncheck the current LinuxCNC repos first.

That makes sense to me, I don't run full out production on my plasma table so I've never experienced a shut down due to over heating.

Forgot to mention power outs, that WAS a daily occurrence here, last 4 to 5 years they rarely occur, but it happens. Just today it went out for over an hour on most parts of the city.

When i do "sudo apt-get update" i have this error:

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
cnc@CNC:~$

That is using old repositories, they have changed.
They will have to be changed in "sources " list or "software sources" GUI.
There are several threads discusing that here in the forum, just do a quick search.

I have installed Debian 9 and then linuxcnc 2.9 but linuxcnc doesn't recognize all pin of mesa card. I have a 5i25 + 7i76 + 7i85s. I've error when i open my old configuration beacuse linuxcnc doesn't found some pin of mesa. When i tried this command:

sudo dmesg -c {You will be asked for a password}
halrun
loadrt hostmot2
loadrt hm2_pci
show pin
show param
exit
dmesg

terminal didn't show me all pin. before i updated linuxcnc and debian, terminal had shown me all pins.

The error:
