IMPORTANT NOTE

Note: If the ProgRock2, when accessed by the USB port, mounts a filesystem and NOT a serial port
THEN read this excerpt from the manual (https://qrp-labs.com/images/progrock2/ProgRock2_1_00b.pdf).

Important notes about the ProgRock2 firmware implementation
1. The only way to enter firmware update mode, is to press ‘f’ on the terminal screen
2. The only way to get out of firmware update mode, is to update the firmware by copying in a
new firmware file. Even power cycling doesn’t get you out of firmware update mode. If you
enter firmware update mode by mistake, you can just to a “Copy and Paste” of the current
firmware in the directory. This will overwrite the firmware with itself, which is pointless
except that it does get you out of the firmware update mode.
DO NOT press "f" unless you intend to update the firmware.
