Powering Up the Router
134 7705 SAR-M Chassis Installation Guide
Troubleshooting Initial Startup
If the system cannot load or cannot find the boot.ldr file on the compact flash memory 
device (cf3-A:), the system will reboot continuously in an attempt to successfully find and 
load the boot.ldr file. If this happens, connect the console and press the <Enter> key when 
the message “Hit a key within 3 seconds to change boot parms...” is displayed. Follow the 
provisioning menu to create a new bof.cfg file if it is missing. If this procedure fails to 
save the new bof.cfg file, then the 7705 SAR-M should be replaced and the faulty router 
returned to Alcatel-Lucent.
