Re: help with CF card on Catalyst 6500 with Sup720

[Florian Hibler <florian.hibler () kaiaglobal com>]

Hi Martin,
Unfortunately I cannot provide you a dd-image, although I had the same
issue a couple of times.

What helped me was formatting the cf with fat16 and using the 2nd cf
slot on the sup instead of the first one.

Hope that works for you as well.

Cheers,
Florian
