Hello,
I have an ASA 5505 (128mb flash, 512mb). It was on firmware 8.2.1 so I downloaded 8.4.7 and 9.1.3 and put them in the disk0. I then set the boot image to be 8.4.7 to upgrade to that first and hit reload, but to my shock it started with the 9.1.3 firmware, now it is some sort of loop, see below. Can I power cycle into Rommon mode and change the boot?

Sorted it, just uploaded 8.4.7 via the rommon and set the image then it rebooted fine as 8.4.7 then I just did 9.1.3 the normal way.
