what I meant was from the IOS from routing blade/rp/msfc (was probably
trying to save on typing!!) when running in hybrid mode, the 6k can't see
the flash. But when upgrading from the hybrid to native it can't see the
flash until the IOS images are loaded, so when the SP changes console
ownership
What are you typing?

I eventually worked it out. It seems that you can't see a flash card on a RP
on a 6000. I'd done a lot of testing with a loaned 6500 for upgrading from
Cat OS Hybrid IOS and back again, just in case. On the 65 you can see the
flash and so boot from it in rommon, which is great because I can leave
Didn't you like my disk0 idea? :-)
