Re: storing partial-configs in flash

I'll be willing to purchase that death ray for anyone that figures this
out. I think I killed off 4 switches and 6 routers. Not to mention the
fact the my lab'ing has come to a screeching halt.

Sent by:

Has anyone tried to store a partial config in flash and then copy it into
the startup or running config. It seems to have caused some strangeness
for me. It has basically overwritten the default options with my partial
file and I can't seem to get it back to normal. Worse still... When I
edit the portions of the config that don't appear the changes aren't
reflected in the config files. Any ideas?
