How did I brick my FRWY-LS1012a?

I'm just getting started with my new FRWY-LS1012a and followed some of the first instructions to reprogram uboot. After following the instructions in "Layerscape LS1012A Freeway (FRWY-LS1012A) Board Getting Started Guide, Rev. 1, 05/2018", section 4.4 Step 3: "Programming BSP composite firmware image", my board no longer boots. I'm mostly curious about what exactly when wrong here. Here is a transcript, which after a reset, the board is bricked:

=> tftp firmware_ls1012afrwy_uboot_qspiboot.img

Darn, it was my tftp load address. Makes sense.
