Hi
did you save it , it should show after copy run start ?

[getaway51]

do i need to save it? I didn't do write mem.

I havent reboot yet too.

Did you mean it will change after i do "write mem"?

If it is still playing up after saving the config, please share the output of sh ver

...it could be the configuration register value you have configured.

Cheers,

Seb.

if you did "wr mem" and still not worked, check this:

1. May be you have 3 or more .bin files on flash. (try leaving no more than two files)

2. Check your . bin file and may be download him again.

[Mark Malone]

make sure its right before rebooting first

Try deleting the boot var before applying new boot statement.

conf t
no boot system switch all
do show boot
boot system switch all flash:x.x.x.x.bin

[getaway51]

after these 4 commands, do i need "write mem"?
