In this step, we will upload the new image to the board using the Arduino Flasher CLI.

1. Open a terminal and navigate to the directory where you unzipped the Arduino Flasher CLI (normally `/Downloads`).

2.Enter the following command in the terminal: `./arduino-flasher-cli flash latest`**but do not run it yet!**

3. Connect the board to the computer, and run the above `./arduino-flasher-cli flash latest`command **directly**after connecting the board (while the board's LED matrix is making animations).

4.First, a download sequence will begin. **Please note**that this process involves downloading a large file (the image), which exceeds 1 GB.

5. Once the download is complete, it will flash the board with the new image. This will also take several minutes. Do **not** disconnect the board during this process.

5. Once flashing completes and the tool reports success, **power-cycle**the board (unplug and re-plug USB) so it boots the new OS. (Ensure the jumper is removed before the power-cycle.)
