[c-nsp] Downgrade 6509 w/ Sup720 to CatOS

[MADMAN]

   I have converted IOS-OS and OS-IOS.  There are several steps and you 
need to follow them carefully to avoid RMAing your sup:)  As far as the 
configs Cisco has a tool to convert them but it is marginal at best and 
you would still have to go thru the configs manually.  That being said I 
convert the configs by hand, tedious work but I know the cutover will be 
much smoother.
