you are going to have to be more descriptive if we are to help you. What troubles, what messed up? What steps have you done? etc.
My printer was working with the previous version, i tried to upgrade to ratos 2 and i cant connect it now, i need to flash my board to the new firmware and i dont know how to do that. I watched some videos and i need to have the previous firmware on an sd am i right?
i tried to upgrade to ratos 2what does this mean? You need to explain in more detail your actions
I watched some videos and i need to have the previous firmware on an sd am i right?no, that isn't how ratos works
Ok lets take it from the beginning, what is the procedure to upgrade to ratos v2? Flash the board with new firnware using sd card and then flash raspberry with Ratos v2 using an sd card?
Have you looked at the guide on how to Flash RatOS?

Also this, i downloaded the firmware for my board and niw is in an sd inserted in the board
And am stuck here
I press the check board status but nothing is happening
there is no upgrade from v1.x. You need to flash the ratos 2.x image to a SD card and use that in your pi. Then you need to follow the instructions from https://os.ratrig.com/docs/installation and what the configurator is telling you.
after downloading the firmware, did you power cycle your board so that it would install the firmware?
I flashed the ratos 2 image and its ok that stage, am struggling with the board flashing, i did what they say but how can i double check that the firmware is flashed to the board?
Btw thanks for helping me
So you did all 9 of those steps listed on the web page?
Yes and i have a question, my board is skr 2, i went through the wizard and i downloaded the drivers to an empty sd, after i insert the sd with the skr 2 drivers into the skr2 board, then what? How do i know that the board is flashed?
there are two different SKR 2 boards (https://os.ratrig.com/docs/boards/list#big-tree-tech) which one do you have?
