[c-nsp] Summary: strange npe-225 and 7206 non-vxr crashes

[Ed Ravin]

Just FYI, the solution for the problem below was to get the guy on
Ebay to send me another NPE-225 - the first one was defective.
The "Bad CPU ID" and other errors on bootup turned out to be issues
with an outdated bootflash, and were neither related to the problem
nor did they interfere with proper operation once I got a working
NPE-225.
