Comment (by wmb at firmworks.com):
The problem is not in OFW per se, but rather in the external autoupdate
script.
Scott's version of the autoupdate script is using an internal firmware
command that is not present in older firmware versions. The best way to
handle this would be to perform the firmware update step first, thus
ensuring that current firmware is available for the NAND update stage.
That is a good idea for several reasons.
