my odd scenario today:
I bricked my iLiad this way:
# testing some [non released] software
# frozen iLiad, never ending blinking LED
# I reset iLiad
# iLiad boots, but booting doesn't finish

I have to flash!
# flashinging to firmware 2.10 with default config.txt values
# requesting iLiad Development Package
# updating firmware from 2.10 to 2.12
# update done
# iLiad reboots
# iLiad starts IDS automatically again, download of iLiad Development Package.
# iLiad reboots & it ends in a never ending "reboot loop"
Bang!
I have to flash again!
# flashing to firmware 2.10 with "format" in config.txt
# updating firmware from 2.10 to 2.12
# update done
# iLiad reboots
# requesting iLiad Development Package
# download of iLiad Development Package
# iLiad reboots, uuuuhh, this time w/o "reboot loop".

To sum up, never request "iLiad Development Package" before connecting iLiad to iDS, when you know iLiad will update the firmware with next iDS contact.
