rommon and router boot problem

mikejr

I accidentally blew up the IOS on my router. After some messing around, I was able to use TFTP to copy it back to the flash card. So now I have the IOS file back on the flash card, but I can't make it boot from it.

I had to clear the config-register 0x0 to get to the rommon. I think I have to replace the correct file to boot off of at 0x0, but I'm confused as to what those config-register commands do.

Please tell me how I can make it boot from the file off the flash: filesystem. Also if anyone feels energetic, please give me a mini explaination of the config-registers.
