Well the Milwaukee Makerfaire is done, I had my MPCNC running for 2 days 
straight and I was fair pleased with how it ran.
At the time I only had auto-homing working on the x but that's all fixed 
now.

If someone wants use an  MPCNC with Machinekit and a Cramps  on a 
beaglebone you can find it here:

Its not perfect and I'm not done, but it works.   One issue I had was that 
the motors would skip after a the carriage deracked and it was returning to 
the home position.  I could keep if from skipping by keeping the home 
distance short.  It seems that this mode doesn't respond to max job speed 
or max velocity overide in axis display.   I'm assuming the fix is just to 
reduce the max velocity settings.
