Hi ,

Thanks for the help , but if I use 0x2102 , I should use the boot system command , or else the switch will boot in rommon mode, right?

I have only one IOS in switch bootflash.

Thanks

Don't believe that is true , you can use a boot statement and it will use it but if there is no boot statement it will just use the first image it finds in bootflash .

Hi,

I have changed the config reg but when I reload the switch it goes to Rommon mode , and I had to issue the command boot after that the switch boot normally..

I check the bootvar but nothing is showing there.

what do you think?

I have seen some switches behave this way. Set the config register to 0x2102, configure the 'boot system flash' command and try.

Hi ,

I set the config register to 0x2102 , and I configured the boot system flash , but still the switch is going to rommon mode when reset.

Notice that in my switch the IOS is on bootflash , not flash , so when I typed the command boot system , I dont have option bootflash , it is only flash , so the command I used is :

boot system flash cat4000-i9s-mz.122-25.EWA7.bin

What do you think?

hi,

is the below show bootvarv normal ?

BB#sh bootvar

BOOT variable = :,1;,1;cat4000-i9s-mz.122-25.EWA7.bin,1;

CONFIG_FILE variable does not exist

BOOTLDR variable does not exist

Configuration register is 0x2102

Use "boot system flash bootflash:cat4000-i9s-mz.122-25.EWA7.bin . Then you have to do a write mem before it will show up in the show bootvar command.
