I followed the instructions on the CP page "https://circuitpython.org/board/metro_m4_airlift_lite/" and downloaded the 8.0.4 .UF2 file. I dragged it to the boot drive and the board stopped working. So I Updated the UF2 Bootloader to Latest version: v3.15.0. Then the board only brings up the METROM4BOOT USB drive on my Mac.
So I dragged the 8.0.4 .UF2 file "adafruit-circuitpython-metro_m4_airlift_lite-en_US-8.0.4.uf2" to the boot drive and now I have the CIRCUITPY drive back. However, when I save the demo code I get this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Users/davidrossi/Desktop/Copy from board/code.py", line 5, in <module>
import board
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'board'
>>>
Please advise...
Thanks,
Dave

Using Mu and Circuit Python mode.
When I hit Save, nothing happens. REPL has >>> only.
The board is flashing two red pulses. The code cannot find board.
I ran CircUp and here are the library versions from the board:
simpleio==None
neopixel==3.3.6
adafruit_dotstar==1.5.0
adafruit_hid==None
adafruit_motor==1.4.1
adafruit_bus_device==2.2.10
adafruit_esp32spi==1.3.5
adafruit_waveform==None

Bill,
Should I return this board for a new one? Is there a way to reload it with the factory code and such?

I don't think this is a board problem at all. As I mentioned, the pathname you showed from the error message indicates that you are running code.py on the host computer, not on the board.
What version of Mu are you using, and what OS and its version is on the host computer?

Re: Metro M4 Airlift won't boot after UF2 Bootloader updated to version: v3.15.0
13.2.1 macOS
Mu 1.2.0
The first thing I did was make a backup of the CIRCUITPY drive. I have since copied that back to assure that has not changed. Therefore, the only thing I've done is install the UF2 file and also run the Bootloader update.
How can I tell that the code is running on the Mac and not the board, and how can I point it to the board if it isn't?
I appreciate your help.

Are you willing to do this support more interactively in our discord? It would save time. Go to https://adafru.it/discord, and then to the #help-with-circuitpython channel. Put up a screenshot of your Mu screen showing the error.

It needs to wait ten minutes... I think I am in the right place though.
