If the BIOS is configured to Legacy Only mode to boot, the computer will likely boot back into the PC-DOS environment unless the media is removed (which it won't be).

The README should be adjusted to explain that the computer should be turned off by holding down the power button, otherwise the user can end up in a flashing loop.

Hi, Maybe a safer option is to enter the BIOS setup right after the flashing was successful and set it back to UEFI boot
