Thanks Marcus,

I used your script which installed all the prerequisites, downloaded and 
installed the source code for newest version of Gnu radio and UHD, together 
with the newest pre-built images of FPGA and firmware. The last two mentioned 
were to find in usr/local/share/uhd/images. 

The mentioned trunk files were also to be found in the UHDs' sub-directories 
'firmware' and 'fpga'.

Regarding the firmware and FPGA image, here is how I understood it:
- There are to images flashed on the SD card, firmware and FPGA image. 
- The firmware image configurates the FPGA pins and "constructs" "Soft CPU", 
now ZPU, which handles the communication 
and operations with other hardware on the board, BUT NO DSP.
- On the other side, the FPGA image configurates the rest of the FPGA for 
high-speed DSP.  

Correct?

One thing left unclear - Is the "Soft CPU" present in FPGA by fabrication, or 
is it just our choice of "constructing" it by programming FPGA to "construct" 
one? 


    
Thank you in advance,
Nemanja
