Surely the kernel would prevent you writing to a disk that is opened by it for the FS.

[Discuss-gnuradio] USRP2 SD Card rewrite
On October 25 Matt wrote: " Build the firmware by running make in the gnuradio/usrp2 directory Insert the SD card into the card reader, and the card reader into a USB port on your computer Run "sudo u2_flash_tool --dev=/dev/ -t s/w usrp2/firmware/txrx.bin -w" /dev/ has to be replaced with the device for the SD card " This needs some small corrections I think. The correct instructions seem to be cd usrp2/firmware Run "sudo ./u2_flash_tool --dev=/dev/ -t s/w ./apps/txrx.bin -w" with the rest which I emphasize again. If you get the wrong for the device, you can wipe out your hard drive. Most people will have their hard drive as /dev/sda and on my computer it seems the device is, like Matt's computer, to be /dev/sdb.
