[c-nsp] corrupted IOS image when transferring using PCMCIA card - to Scott

[Cis Ckp]

Hi,

The command "verify /md5" works on MSFC but if
I were to verify the same on our spare 6509's
switch(ie didn't login to MSFC via "session 15"),
I won't be able to do the verify as shown below :

# verify ?
  <[[m/]device:]filename>    Device and filename
  <cr>
# verify m/slot0:c6msfc2-psv-mz.121-13.E8.bin
Can not verify file on device

# verify m/slot0:c6msfc2-psv-mz.121-13.E8.bin ?
  <cr>


Just spotted one Allied Telesis fibre to RJ45
converter - does anyone know if I can use
this converter to connect my notebook to our
production MSFC (which only has fibre GBIC
ports) so that I can ftp/tftp image into the
MSFC bootflash?  Do I use a straight or cross
UTP RJ45 cable to connect my notebook to the
converter?


Thanks
