I have a 3725 which has missing flash card: it boots to ROMMON only;
if I get a new compact flash card - how do I format it first to enable
me put an IOS version on it? Should I be able to boot from "internal"
memory ?

It appears that the 3725 has no internal flash and so can not boot
IOS without a compact flash card *unless you do a network boot*.

I am not sure, however a quick search suggests that there
is no rommon 'format' command. The best idea might well be
to do a network boot (tftp or otherwise boot) and then format
the flash from IOS.

If you can't find the documentation that describes how
to do a network boot please come back for further info.
I would describe it here if I could, but I need to look it up
so you may as well do that yourself:-)

Bear in mind that tftp is limited to 64M (or 32M
if you have old kit). tftpd32.exe (tftpd32.jounin.net)
is pretty cool 'n' groovy.
