Starting the System and Observing Initial Conditions
Step6 To locate a desired Cisco IOS software image for manually booting the router
from the ROM monitor prompt (rommon>), first determine the contents of the
onboard Flash memory SIMM (NVRAM) on the RP by issuing the directory
command:
rommon 1> dir bootflash:
File size Checksum File name
3277967 bytes (0x32048f) 0x6b331e30 gsr-p-mz.112-9.GS4
rommon 2>
If the onboard Flash memory SIMM contains the desired Cisco IOS boot image,
proceed to Step8. Otherwise, continue with Step 7.
Step7 If a Flash memory card is presently inserted in PCMCIA slot 0 or slot 1 (or both),
determine the contents of the card(s) by issuing the appropriate form of the
following command:
rommon 2> dir slot0: | slot1:
File size Checksum File name
3054276 bytes (0x2e9ac4) 0x97788495 gsr-p-mz.112-9.GS4
rommon 3>
If you find the desired Cisco IOS boot image in a Flash memory card, proceed
with Step 8.
Step8 After locating the desired Cisco IOS software image for manually booting the
router, select the appropriate form of the boot command from the following list
and issue it at the ROM monitor prompt:
rommon 3> boot bootflash:gsr-p-mz.112-9.GS4
This command boots the specified file from the onboard Flash memory SIMM
(NVRAM) on the RP.
rommon 3> boot slot0:gsr-p-mz.112-9.GS4
This command boots the specified file from the Flash memory card in PCMCIA
slot 0.
rommon 3> boot slot1:gsr-p-mz.112-9.GS4
