The BootIMG.FLB file format uses four part Device IDs when necessary
to distinguish the correct NVM image for a device. All utilities and
software are able to read older versions of BootIMG.FLB. However, you
must update any utilities software you use to a more recent version to
use the new BootIMG.FLB. Please upgrade to the following versions (or
a more recent version):

* BootUtil, v. 1.3.5.xxx

* Intel(R) PROSet for Windows* Device Manager, v. 17.1.xxx

* SMASH, v2-2.0.0.58
