You have to copy the firmware files manually to usr/local/share/usrp/rev{2,4}

cd <your_path_to_gnuradio_source_code>/usrp/fpga/rbf/rev2
cp *rbf /usr/local/share/usrp/rev2

cd <your_path_to_gnuradio_source_code>/usrp/fpga/rbf/rev4
cp *rbf /usr/local/share/usrp/rev4

The firmware was installed automatically in previous revisions but for some 
reason nolonger is.

Hope this helps
