SOLVED: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Yet another cisco 9760 7.x firmware failure

[John Breeden]

My Cisco 7960G is no longer a killer doorstop! It's now a fully 
functioning  phone! Very cool. Thanks to all.

Turns out that the 7.X series firmware does include a .loads file. It 
looks to be a loader file used by Cisco's Application Manager to 
identify and load the firmware version.
