My guess is that the -2 is added to the file name because you already have fwdc220b.bin on your desktop somewhere and the OS automatically adds the -2 to differentiate it from that first file. I'm pretty sure you shouldn't put the “fwdc220b-2.bin.cpgz” on the SD card. - Marco On Jul 10,

Christine, inspect your Downloads folder for existing copies of any of these files and delete them. Or download the .zip file and move it into a freshly created -- and empty -- folder, then double-click on it to unzip it. That should leave you with a fwdc220b.bin file. On Thu, Jul 10, 2014 at
