Hi David,

I had a similar problem a while back. Now this might not be what
you're

doing....

My router would boot up, into 'mini' IOS. I would then assign an IP
address

to e0, and ping TFTP fine. I would then initiate the copy process. As
part

of the process (I think it was just before the copy started), the
router

would reboot, again no problem here. However once the router tried to
start

the copy, it wouldn't be able to find the TFTP server.

Solution.....

When the router rebooted, it lost it's IP address (it had never been
saved)

and hence couldn't talk to the TFTP server.Copy run start after I had

assigned the IP fixed it.

Gained a few grey hairs over this one !

HTH, Regards.

Lachlan

Hi folks. I just started the mailing list today. My
lab date is June 19-20

in SJ. Here is my question:

I am trying to tftp to a router that has no IOS in flash, basically it
has

booted the mini IOS off of the bootflash.

I try to tftp an IOS off of a directly connected TFTP server,
everything

seems to work.

The questions come up, the router verifies that it can find the file on
my

tftp server. It asks to clear the flash and I let it, then it
says that it

can't find the IOS on my TFTP server and the copy stops...

Any ideas?

Dave
