booting from the rommon command prompt [7:6447]

2001-05-30 Thread Lists Wizard

Hello,

I have a router that gives me a series of Cs at boot time before it starts
decompressing the image. What the router is doing before decompressing
the IOS image?


Thanks


 rommon 3  boot slot0:gsr-p-mz.120-16.ST.bin

Hint: To decompress a file, you need a writable storage device to
decompress it to.

Someone approached me and asked me to teach a javascript course. I was
about to decline, saying that my complete ignorance of the subject made
me unsuitable, then I thought again, that maybe it doesn't, as driving
people away from it is a desirable outcome. --Me

I'm sure that someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the
router is computing a checksum to be verified against the image.  In
short, it's ensuring that the image file is complete, and uncorrupted,
before it attempts to uncompress and load it.
