	I've seen weird issues before with copying IOS into
routers where it copies ok, but it doesn't boot afterwards.  (luckily
always in the lab).

	everyone should make use of the verify /md5 slot/disk n:imagename
feature and check your md5 sig against the one on your tftp server
*just in case*.

	I believe in some newer ios'es (i've seen it in 12.2SX
amongst others) there is automatic image verification that checks 
it sufficent to see if it was corrupted in the copy, but i've never
had it fail.. so ymmv.
