I think I'll try this suggestion, that and the one about the TFTP
server. I tried copying to flash in normal mode (and in boot mode) but it
doesn't want to let me do it. I'll have to try to setup a read/write
partition on it and see if that does any good, otherwise I'll probably just
try to copy it from a TFTP server while in boot mode.
Thanks for all the suggestions.
