Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Re g : Building gr-uhd and usrp2-firmware

[sumitstop]

Hi Marcus I got the answer for the question in this thread.Actually I was
using an outdated version of UHD which doesn't had USRP2 firmwares.Hence
during configure it was showing the above error.
I just downloaded the latest images and firmwares.
I need to ask that whether it is needed to uninstall the older UHD before
installing the new one.
If yes then 
will "make uninstall" will work in the directory from which i did "make
install" ?
or some other way .......
