Erased dir on new ASA 5585

So, I accidentally erased the entire directory on a new Cisco ASA 5585-A-SSP-60 (don't ask). Thank God it wasn't in production, lol. Needless to say, all I can do now is boot into ROMMON. We have another identical 5585 that still has it's directory intact. I was wondering if I can just copy the .pkg and .bin files from it over to a TFTP server and then pull those same files down to the ASA in which I erased everything? Any and all feedback is much appreciated, thanks!

Pretty much, yes.

Why did you do that? 😉

And instead of copying everything from the other ASA, you could also load the files from cisco.com (assuming you have a support-contract).
