[j-nsp] Creating an M7i boot PCMCIA card

[Scott Morris]

If you look at the "jinstall" versions of JUNOS where you download files,
that will be the version for your CF/PCMCIA card.  And (if memory serves)
the instructions for imaging the CF (through the 'dd' program) are posted at
the download site.

HTH,

Scott

Subject: [j-nsp] Creating an M7i boot PCMCIA card

In the ongoing saga that is M7is and their harddrives, we've lost another
battle in the war.

I now have a working M7i, a broken M7i with a new harddrive and a 256M
PCMCIA flash card.

I'm trying to figure out how I create a bootable flash so that I can boot up
the broken router, and how I then reinstall JunOS onto the new drive.

Does anyone have any hints/instructions on how exactly to do this? My guess
is it'll be something like the follow but I need details :)
a) Use working router to create bootable flash
b) Boot broken router from flash
c) Transfer JunOS from flash onto new HDD
d) Reboot broken router from HDD

Thanks in advance,
Ras
