Basic installationBasic Installation from the EMC2 Live CD is easier and faster than ever. You can also try out EMC2 without installing anything to your hard disk. The EMC2 Live CD is based on Ubuntu "Dapper Drake" with additional packages maintained by the linuxcnc development team.
With this configuration, you continue to get all the benefits of Ubuntu, such as security updates and excellent community-based support for the base OS, plus support of the EMC2 components by the EMC2 team. (Ubuntu is the preferred way to use EMC2).
Other methods of installationOther ways to obtain, compile, and install emc2 are discussed on the community-maintained linuxcnc wiki. Source codeEMC2 is an open-source project. Currently we keep the source-code in CVS (a versioning system) at cvs.linuxcnc.org. You can browse the sources online, using cvsview , or download them (instructions).
