just an update about my query ......

in fact if left unattended after reload or reset switch boots after approx 15 minutes ...

can you giys please gimme explaination why does it take soooooo loonngggg boot the switch.

They are very slow to boot specially if you have multiple switches in a stack . Not much you can do about it other than to reload on off hours. Part of the problem is the slow process of electing a stackmaster and then the boot diagnostics also take a long time . This is something cisco should work on , i have read some competitors boot in like a minute or 2 .

Please try adding this line "boot system flash:flash:c3560-ipbase-mz.122-25.SEE3/c3560-ipbase-mz.122-25.SEE3.bin".
