I can't speak to the new build, but this is the exact behavior seen in the
problem build. Trying to format /sd0 or /sd1 will generate a 208 and trying
to format any other device generates a 247. Try formatting /sd0 or /sd1 and
see if it gives you a 208. If it does, you probably have the unfixed build.
