The following assumptions apply for the Flash memory card copying procedures in this
section:
You have a formatted Flash memory card inserted in a PCMCIA slot in the RP.
You know the name of the file you want to copy to the Flash memory card.
You have a valid, bootable Cisco IOS software image stored in the onboard Flash
memory SIMM, enabling you to start the router.
The bootable Cisco IOS software image that you want to copy to the Flash memory card
in the PCMCIA slot exists on a TFTP server somewhere in the network.
You have access to the network TFTP server by means of a configured and fully
functional network interface on your system.
To ensure access to the network TFTP server, you must configure one network interface
using the setup command facility.
For instructions on using the TFTP facility, refer to the section entitled Using the Setup
Facility or the Setup Command. You can also refer to the document entitled
Configuration Fundamentals Configuration Guide.
To copy a bootable image onto a Flash memory card, perform the following steps:
Step1 Boot the router and allow it to initialize.
