	You should use rcp instead of tftp, tftp is subject to a number
of bugs and is fairly insecure.  RCP is tcp based and will perform
better as well.

	ftp://ftp.shrubbery.net/pub/rcpd

	This means if you're loading a 74M!!! IOS image into flash
it will go a lot faster.  (Oh, and the !'s vary in size depending
on the platform/image, you should not be expecting consistent behaviour).
