Cannot get 2.1 to work on new install

I followed the RatRig dozuki site precisely regarding all electronics. I wired everything to the EBB42 v 1.2 toolboard and my Octopus v1.1 mcu. I created a totally new micro sd card with the latest version 2.1. I got to the install part where it asked for my toolboard. As expected it needed to be flashed. The automatic flashing did not work nor has any attempt to flash via DFU worked. And I have the 24vdc connected correctly. Brand new v3.1 USB cords. This is my third attempt in the 18 months I have owned a RAtRig to try a toolboard, always with the same outcome. It can't be this difficult. I can't even detect power to the toolboard but now sure what to look for. LIghts?
Solution:
Turns out connecting the PI via Ethernet solved the problems. I think my PI wireless is very weak.

I'd recommend checking for 24V with a multimeter

I did and I have power. I disconnected everything from the EBB42 except the USB. I added the jumper and lights came on. I flashed, I think but after it was done, the flash button reappeared. Is that normal?
