[c-nsp] 1720 and rommon

[Voll, Scott]

Find the smallest possible image (that supports at least an Ethernet
port) and use Xmodem....  Then tftp a full image after you get it
booted.

Good Luck

Scott

Hi All

I wonder if there is any possibility that a deleted file can be
recovered from flash on a 7200 router.

An unsuccessful upgrade has left the boot procees in a reset loop . Also
The rommon does not appear to allow me to set up for tftpdnld ,
IP_ADDRESS,IP_SUBNET_MASK,DEFAULT_GATEWAY,TFTP_SERVER etc

Any ideas

Thks Mike

Thanks John for the detailed answers (this message and previous)....

I didn't realize the 2950 had these issues.. you have just saved me a
BUNCH of time and I thank you.... yeah, hehe.. the good old days of
duplex mismatches... *almost* miss some of that fun...;)
