Tried that. After the first command, "CLAIM failed" nearly at once,
after the second, I get the rotating -/|, about two revolutions, then
"CLAIM failed". Same after the third, etc. (I tried this after
shutting down from MacOS, waiting for more than a minute (read this in =
the archive), and then powering up again.)

Hm, can I help someone debugging? And what are the chances it will
work anytime soon?
