RE: Loading IOS [7:61413]
As far as Im aware you can only use the ATA flash disks on Windows PCs, and not the older linear flash PCMCIA cards. Itd probably use a different filesystem anyway, although Ive not tried it. There is a Linux utility to access cisco filesystems on pcmcia card.http://www.si.org/cffs/ Hope that helps :) TTFN Lauren Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7i=61596t=61413 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Loading IOS [7:61413]
Actually, if you are using Windows 2000, you can insert a PCMCIA flash card in a free slot of your laptop and have the OS seeing it as another hard disk removable drive on which you can copy files. You just can drag and drop any file you want on that, including IOS images. I use this method regularly and I have no problems.

I went in the lab and it didn't work.

Re: Loading IOS [7:61413]
mea culpa!!! When I tested the file copy I inserted the flash in slot 1 of the 3660 but read slot 0:( After reading your post and URL I got to wondering so I went back and tested it correctly and YES THE FILE SYSYTEMS ARE COMPATIBLE!!!
