Hi Hanno,

within the source tree (using trunk or 3.2.2):

[insfl4:gnuradio]% find . -name u2_flash_tool
./usrp2/firmware/u2_flash_tool
[insfl4:gnuradio]% usrp2/firmware/u2_flash_tool --help
Usage: u2_flash_tool: [options] filename

Options:
 -h, --help            show this help message and exit
 -w, --write           write FILE to TARGET slot
 -v, --verify          verify FILE against TARGET slot
 -r, --read            read TARGET slot, write to FILE
 -t TARGET, --target=TARGET
                       select TARGET slot from: fpga, s/w [default=s/w]
 --dev=DEV             specify flash device file, e.g., /dev/sdb.  Be
                       careful!

Does this help?

Thx Martin but for some reason the tool was really not where it was supposed to be.
I solved the whole problem by recompiling and reinstalling gnuradio.

After that updating the firmware worked fine.

Thanks
