Loading and Configuring the Bootflash Image
Step 5
To copy the rsp-boot image onto the bootflash, use the following series of commands:
Router# copy tftp:rsp-boot-mz.121-5.T1 bootflash:rsp-boot-mz.121-5.T1
20575008 bytes available on device slot0, proceed? [confirm]
Address or name of remote host [1.1.1.1]?

Note
In the preceding example, the exclamation points (!!!) appear as the file is downloaded, and
the “C” characters signify calculation of the checksum, which is a verification that the file
has been correctly downloaded to bootflash.
Step 6
Use the dir bootflash command to confirm that the image has been copied to Flash memory. The output
should display the filename of the image you copied to Flash memory (rsp11-1 in the following
example):
Router# dir bootflash:
Directory of bootflash:/
1 -rw- 5090824 Jan 01 2000 00:02:28 rsp-boot-mz.121-5.T1
7602176 bytes total (2511224 bytes free)
Router#
Step 7
To ensure that the new image is used as a bootloader, add the appropriate commands to the
configuration file. To modify the configuration file, use the configure terminal command, as follows:
Router# configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Step 8
Specify that you are changing the bootloader image, and that it will load from bootflash. Then add the
filename of the new bootloader image to be loaded from bootflash:
Router(config)# boot bootldr bootflash:rsp-boot-mz.121-5.T1
The bootloader command is automatically added to your running configuration.
Step 9
To exit configuration mode, press Ctrl-Z.
Step 10
To save the configuration, copy the new configuration to nonvolatile random-access memory
(NVRAM):
Router#
Router# copy running-config startup-config
The new bootloader image is saved in the startup-config.
