Cisco Systems 4908G-L3 Erasing Files from a Full Bootflash Memory SIMM, Router# dir bootflash

Chapter 3 Configurations for the Layer 3 Switch Router

Using the Bootflash Memory SIMM

To copy the system image from the TFTP server to a bootflash memory SIMM, perform the following procedure, beginning in privileged EXEC mode:

	Command	Purpose
Step 1
	Router# dir bootflash:	Display the contents of bootflash memory,
		including the names of the images that
		currently reside there.
Step 2
	Router# copy tftp: bootflash:	Copy a file from a TFTP server to bootflash
		memory.

The following example demonstrates how to copy a system image from the TFTP server to the bootflash memory SIMM without erasing the previous image file.

Note To retain existing images on the bootflash memory, enter no when you are prompted to confirm erasing bootflash memory.

Router# copy tftp: bootflash:

Address or name of remote host [172.10.00.00]?

Source filename [domino/cat2948g-in-mz.120-7.W5.14.45]? domino/cat2948g-in-mz.120-7.W5.14.46

Destination filename [cat2948g-in-mz.120-7.W5.14.46]?
