[c-nsp] 3750/3550 SMI vs EMI

Strange. I don't see any difference in downloading a SI or EI image for the
2950 ? As far as I know it's the same image, but it detects automatically if
it is a EI or SI hardware.

According to Cisco SI hardware is not upgradeable to EI, unless you buy a
switch that is EI.

Can you point me to two different images for the 2950 being SI and EI ?

Kind regards,

Koen.

The whole unit.  I loaded the EMI image on a 2950T-48-SI and it failed to 
load, spitting out an error about the hardware not supporting the E image. 
I was dumped into RMON and had to xmodem a 6MB image (ugh) to it.
