Hi Troy,

The flash cards are hot swappable as long as you are already booted up.  The
DRAM card, of course, is not hot-swappable.  Also, if the TNT is relatively
new (2000- 2001) you likely have 32MB of DRAM......which is the default.

Yes....you will be able to reboot the TNT with the alternate flash card with
different TAOS rev on it.  

Good Luck...........

Subject: (ASCEND) TNT Memory



I'm considering upgrading to 9.0-159 release, but don't know if I have
enough memory.  Is there a command to tell me how much DRAM I have in my
TNT?  I want to think it's 32MB, but I'm not sure.

Also, I have an 8MB flash card with 8.0.4 on it, and a 16MB flash card
that's unused.  Can I swap the cards while the box is running, format the
16MB and install 9.whatever then reboot to bring it up?  If I'm thinking
correctly, if shit goes wrong, I'll be able to quickly bring the TNT back up
on 8.0.4.  Is this correct?

Forgive my ignorance here, but this is my first TNT after dealing with 4k
and 6k boxes for the last 5 years.

TIA,
