This chapter describes how to reload your system software if the 
following conditions occur:
The boot image has been accidentally deleted or corrupted.
The device is unable to boot.
To reload the software, you must have the software installed on a trivial 
file transfer protocol (TFTP) server on the LAN. You can also use a TFTP/ 
Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP) server.
Install the software on your server from the CD-ROM.
The loading procedure in this chapter:
Reformats the flash memory.
Looks up the IP address of the server.
Transfers the boot.68k file from the server.
Creates the /primary directory.
Places the image in the /primary directory.
Reloading the 
Software
You must have a console attached to your SuperStack II NETBuilder SI 
bridge/router to reload the system software from the backup CD-ROM.
To reload the system software, follow these steps:
Reset the bridge/router by turning the power switch off and on again.
If the boot image has been accidently deleted or corrupted, the 
bridge/router should go into monitor mode, which is indicated by an 
angle bracket prompt (>). Go on to the next step.
If the bridge/router does not go into monitor mode, then contact your 
network supplier. You do not need to complete the remaining steps.
