2651 IOS problem

diastiago · ‎06-08-2008

I have a 2651 that I tryed to upgrade the IOS by xmodem but end up deleting all configuration files, good thing is that is a lab unit.

I get the following when booting:

device does not contain a valid magic number

boot: cannot open "flash:"

boot: cannot determine first file name on device "flash:"

System Bootstrap, Version 12.2(10r)1, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)

TAC Support: http://www.cisco.com/tac

C2600 platform with 98304 Kbytes of main memory

rommon 1 >

Can someone explain step by step what files need to be loaded.

Regards

you've deleted the operating system by mistake

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/routers/ps259/products_tech_note09186a0080094a0b.shtml

See that article, note the links at the end telling you how to reinstall IOS using tftpdnld (if available) or xmodem (if you've got a few hours to spare)

sirdudesly,

I am trying the setps that you mentioned, but the problem is that I am only connecting to the router by console port COM1, and the tftpd32 that I have only listen to the ethernet port, so I can not send the image file.

And by xmodem I get to many errors and the connection drops.

sugestions?
