RatOS 2.1 Kraken V-Core 3.1 confused on what to do next.

I need help with configuring the v-core 3.1. I am lost on what to do next. It's telling me to do what it says in printer.cfg. But, the first few lines are telling me to "Configure the behavior of RatOS macros" then "includes and overrides" and "Sanity check and PID Tuning"? umm, new to this. So. I think there should be a number of steps before you dive into all of that, right? I was thinking maybe something to do with testing the motors and make sure that they're working and doing in the right direction? Just seems like I was pushed into the deep end of the pool. Some what confusing with RatOS and which files to modify or where they're located and when to follow Klipper steps.

Ratos 2.1 documentation isn't finished yet, hence the Release candidate status. Looks like you are trying to follow the 2.0 documentation and a lot has changed between 2.0 and 2.1 Also, not sure the Kraken is supported

I messaged them a few weeks back and they sent the firmware to use until it was released... it is now listed in the 2.0 version. But, I really need help with filling in the blanks or complete setup documents. I am new to building my own and config from scratch... I wasn't aware of anything being incomplete. Just used to being pushed into the deep end as I did when trying the same thing using Duet 3 6HC.

Ratrig 2024-05-28-RatOS-2.1.0-RC1-raspberry-rpi32.img.xz I really wish I knew why I keep seeing different refferences to different drivers being used. Between the Ratrig specific cfg files and the non, I see references for TMC2160, TMC5160 and TMC2209. EBB42 should be using the TMC 2209 and the Kraken should be using TMC 2160.
