+## Setup Network
+
+Plug in your router/switch to an ethernet port on your computer. If your
+computer is usually wired to the network, you will need another ethernet
+port (a PCI card is ideal, but a USB-Ethernet port works).
+
+Set the ethernet port to static ip `192.168.1.100/24`, netmask 255.255.255.0,
+gateway `192.168.1.1`. Make sure this is not the default route. Make sure
+to adjust your firewall to allow traffic on the 192.168.1.0/24 range.
+
+If your local network already uses the 192.168.1.0/24 range, then you must
+modify `upsilon/firmware/soc.py` to use different IPs. You must rebuild the
+SoC after doing this.
+
 ## Setup Images
 
 Run `make images` to create all docker images.
 
 ## Setup and Run Containers

+## Flash FPGA
+
+Plug in your FPGA into the USB slot. Then run
+

+
+## Launch TFTP Server
+
+Install py3tftp (`pip3 install --user py3tftp`). Then run `make tftp` to
+launch the TFTP server. Keep this window open.
+
+## Launch FPGA Shell
+
+Run `litex_term /dev/ttyUSB1`. You should get messages in the window with
+the TFTP server that the FPGA has connected to the server. Eventually you
+will get a login prompt: you have sucessfully loaded Upsilon onto your FPGA.
