[c-nsp] Moving Sup720 from cat6k to 7600

Hello

I would like to boot a Sup720-3BXL in a 7604 chassis, but it won't.

The sup was previously used in a cat6k chassis (as announced by the 
bootstrap),
and even with a CompactFlash formatted on a running 7604/720-3BXL, the blade
does not boot.

The compact flash is readable and a 'dir' shows the image, but booting 
on it crashes
after a while (there is just the ATA line displayed), and about 30 
seconds after, it's
returning to rommon with a weird message (that i can possibly report 
here if needed).

Is there a known trick to 'convert' the blade from cat6k to 76xx ?

Thanks a lot for any help

Best regards,

Gregoire Huet
