Cisco 7301 Router Bootflash

xayavongp · ‎06-04-2010

The disk0: from which the router boots from went bad (unable to read the flash card with the image). There is the bootflash: where the bootloader is stored. The router is in boot mode router (boot)#

I was able to transfer an image to the bootflash: and change the boot variable but the router did not reload properly.

Is the bootflash: not able to read and load the ios image ? Is it only for the bootloader ?

Thanks,

Pete

Hello Pete,

post

show bootvar

dir bootflash:

you need a line like

boot system flash bootflash:iosfilename

or

boot system bootflash:iosfilename

you can check with

dir bootflash:

or

dir bootflash:iosfilename

Hope to help

It appears the problems affecting disk0: is causing issues with the system bus. I was able to barely see it and it crash again.

Thanks for your input.
