came with your (unspecified) computer OS, rather than any third-party
program.Second, the TFTP recovery scheme is a multi-step procedure which
offers multiple opportunities for user input, hence user error. By
itself, an error message doesn't say much. As usual, showing actual
actions (commands) with their actual results (error messages, LED
indicators, ...) can be more helpful than vague descriptions or
interpretations. Especially when using a command-line program,
copy+paste is your friend.
