The file in that directory is

ni-rt/system/FRC_UserProgram.out

Is that one supposed to be copied over to the robot or not?
I think normally you would not delete the ni-rt tree from your distrib. But, in the context of the README, in a previous step of the instructions, you already installed the ni-rt/system/FRC_UserProgram.out onto the robot, and therefore it does not need to be installed again [when the dist contents are copied over].
