My intuition says something like this:
1. Connect the device to a USB port
2. Open a shell console???
3. Write some code, but I don't know what.
I've be happy to read and learn, but I cannot find some basic info about this, for example, how do I run the jb.sh from the serial shell???
I really don't have any idea how to go forward at the point where I connect the MOBO to USB.
Sorry because the probably obvious questions for experts that may think  , but I'm new to this, specially on Linux.

Look at the KT2 Exposed thread, decent pictures, including the PW2.
I am pretty sure I put the connection diagram in it for the currently recommended adapter board.
When you plug into the Linux PC, it will id the new serial cable -
Configure minicom to use that device @ 115000, 8 bits, no flow control, no parity, 2 stop bits.
No code to write, just a few commands to enter.
