Transferring Files with the Flash-Memory PC Card

You can copy configuration files between the internal compact flash memory and the flash-
memory PC card. If you do not use Check Point Network Voyager to configure the flash-
memory PC card as an optional disk, you must mount the flash-memory PC card when you
insert it in the PC-card slot, and you must unmount the flash-memory PC card before you
remove it. You do not need to reboot or shut down the system if you manually mount and
unmount the flash-memory PC card.
To transfer Check Point IPSO images or configuration files to the flash-memory
PC card:
1. Insert the flash-memory PC card into the IP2450 appliance.
2. Connect to the IP2450 appliance by using a console or terminal connection.
3. Mount the flash-memory PC card by using the following command:
mount /dev/wd1 /cdrom
The /cdrom directory is a default directory in Check Point IPSO for mounting media.
4. Use the cp command to transfer Check Point IPSO images or configuration files to and from
the flash-memory PC card.
For example, to copy the current Check Point IPSO image from the compact flash to the
flash-memory PC card, use the following command:
cp /image/current/ipso.tgz /cdrom/
5. Use the following command to unmount the flash-memory PC card before you eject it:
umount /cdrom
6. To remove the card, slowly push the eject button located to the left of the card.
