1204.0. "How to force a boot from EPROM or erase the FLASH ?" by ANTIK::WESTERBERG (Stefan Westerberg DC SN&O Stockholm) Mon Jul 11 1994 09:30

	Hi, by mistake I loaded the Token Ring code into the Packetprobe90
	and now it seems that I can't reverse that.

	Is there some way of force a boot from EPROM or erase the FLASH memory ?

	If you can get into command line mode at the console (option 11), 
	type CLEAR NVRAM, then power cycle the module. If that doesn't 
	work, then I think we would have to replace the FLASH chips. 

	We also have a major issue to release note!

	The clear nvram command didn't work.

	In a future release a clear flash command is on my wish list.
