Linux: New MSP430FR4133 firmware update failure, now cannot connect

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430FR4133, MSP-FET

Tool/software: Linux

I am new to the MSP platform, I have obtained a MSP430FR4133 dev board. Using ubuntu Linux I tried to upload to it using MSPdebug, I got a message saying the firmware needed updating, so I ran MSPdebug firmware update. The update seemed to be going ok until it got to 100% then it failed. 

$ mspdebug tilib --allow-fw-update

MSPDebug version 0.22 - debugging tool for MSP430 MCUs

tilib: MSP430_FET_FwUpdate: MSP-FET / eZ-FET core(communication layer) update failed (error = 74)
tilib: device initialization failed

After the update failure I have been unable to connect to the board. Previously it showed up as a /dev/ttyAMA device. Linux still recognises it as a USB device but it does not mount as a ttyAMA0:

[ 4546.769995] usb 1-2: new full-speed USB device number 17 using xhci_hcd
[ 4546.934999] usb 1-2: New USB device found, idVendor=2047, idProduct=0203
[ 4546.935028] usb 1-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=0, Product=0, SerialNumber=0

Is there anything i can do to fix this or is the board bricked?
