That'll be why I don't have wiringPi on two Oi's here, I use Lite...

I was sort of hoping for "command not found" but getting useage info
when no parameters are supplied or just returning to the prompt shows
that gpio is there.

correct for the GPIO and that the LED is connected to the correct pin
for that GPIO.

If the OP only wants to flash one LED, then hopefully one of the
other GPIO's will work.
