Installing a CompactFlash Memory Card
An optional CompactFlash (CF) memory card provides additional non-volatile storage
capabilities in 8, 16, 32, or 64 Mbyte increments. The CF’s controller interfaces with a host system
allowing data to be written to and read from the CF’s flash memory module. The XSR supports
Type I and II CompactFlash card types. Refer to Figure 2-6 for a generic illustration of the card.
The CF’s memory is large enough to store image files. You can do so simply by using the Bootrom
Monitor mode
copy command. For example, to copy a file from the Onboard flash: directory to the
cflash: directory while in the flash: directory, enter:
XSR>copy <source_name> cflash:<destination_name>
