Starting the System and Observing Initial Conditions

Step 6 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 Step 8. Otherwise, continue with Step 7.

Step 7 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.

Step 8 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
