 How to Emulate Cisco Router External Falsh Memory "ATA PCMCIA Card" in GNS3

1-  Right click the router and choose configure.

2- go to the Memories and disks tab as shown in the figure and configure the size of the flash memory.

3- to see the size of the configured flash memory in the router type "show version" in the console screen as shown:

4- the flash memory by default will be slot0 or slot1 or both. formatting this slot will not be possible "really don't know why"

5- but the GNS3 router will consider the flash memory configured previously disk0 or disk1, so we will format disk0 instead of slot0 as shown in the figure.

6- after formatting, dir the disk0 to see it's contents as shown in the figure.

 

7- you can now copy files like for example IOS or any other files using TFTP server or any method that is compatible.
