[j-nsp] New flash card in M7i

  Once installed, your router won't boot from it, since it's blank, so
will boot from HD as normal.  Then you should be able to issue
'request system snapshot partition' (ie. copy main contents of hard
disk to flash drive).  From that point on, the CF will be your primary
boot medium.  Any code upgrades from then on will occur on the CF
card, so to back up that code and config in the future, you'd issue
'request system snapshot' to copy them to the HD, which is now your
'alternative' boot medium.
