Current version of the driver does not support RAM-downloadable primary
firmware. I'm not really sure how this should be downloaded or is it
even supported operation (i.e., can PRI f/w downloaded to RAM from the
normal operation mode). If I use the same method as with secondary
image, the card just dies (and produces the error message you saw). COR
sreset is needed after that to bring the card back to life, but this
will replace the primary firmware with the original one from the flash.
