Only there are ways to re-flash when all goes south. I didn't offer any support but thought you could use the information.

Not everyone is up to the task or project. I only tackle this at the shop and here I'll pass out clues for folk to take the lead on. Some get upset about that and the problem is that I can't support such an effort outside of the shop. But I will share.
