As the help above explains this will not work on most hosts.
Limitations of maximum transfers of like 512K to a couple MB are very common.
One could just read the max, but I found it less misleading that way.

By configuring the card to not send BOOT ACK.
With it enabled there is unfortunately no way to get the transfer through from userspace.
(The host will sample part of the ACK, CRC wont match and so on)
I will address the rest of you comments in v2.
