OK, I found an alternate "create a bootable USB drive" program and got the whole thing to work. However, the steps as written above didn't work for me exactly.
Under Step 5 there are 4 sub steps. When I typed in cd MAC207A, I got the following error message: CHDIR failed for 'MAC207A' with the little apostrophes. However, when I skipped that step and just typed in MAC, then the program worked and it flashed the MAC address. Now the MB boots up without me having to hit F1 all the time.
Thanks for all of your help!
