+  1. Because of hardware padding, the actual required for put and get
+     operations size may be larger.
+  2. Special TFTP server start-up optionss will probably be required to permit
+     creation of file for the correct operation of the put command.
+  3. CONFIG_FS_READABLE is not a user configuration but is set automatically
+     if any readable filesystem is selected.  At present, this is either CONFIG_FS_FAT
+     and CONFIG_FS_ROMFS.
+  4. CONFIG_FS_WRITABLE is not a user configuration but is set automatically
+     if any writable filesystem is selected.  At present, this is only CONFIG_FS_FAT.
