Hi Jerome,

thanks for your help. I knew 'Mellanox flint'. The disadvantage of it
is that it needs all the drivers loaded, while flint goes directly on
the PCI device.

Unfortunately, now even with the raw image prepared by using infiniburn
from fw-23108-a1-rel.mlx and the correct .brd, I get

mstflint -d /proc/bus/pci/03/00.0 -i fw-23108.bin b
  /0x00030028/ (BOOT2) - read error (Address (0x3002c) is out of image limits
)
Not a valid image
