Re: Upgrade IOS & Delete Old BIN Image

HeavenElite · ‎08-08-2012

Hello,

I own the Cisco switch,2950-24.

When power on,it says Crash fault with information showed below:

Signal = 10, Code = 0x1C, Uptime 00:00:12

after softreset,I got something similarly

Signal = 10, Code = 0x408, Uptime E

Then I search google.com and found the resolution of upgrating IOS.

I push mode button before power.Then I access into the CLI.I checked the files in the flash: and got these:

switch: dir flash:

22 -rwx 110 <date> info.ver

I delete bin,and got these:

I tried kinds of commands.Please give me a hand

Leo Laohoo · ‎08-08-2012

Console into your switch and post the entire bootup sequence.

I would really like to see where it starts falling apart.

It Stoped here.The bin 12.1(12c)EA1,just softreset twice.

Leo Laohoo · ‎08-08-2012

It's looks like it's dead but you're getting a "Signal 10" error message which also means an IOS bug. Try uploading a different IOS version.

HeavenElite · ‎08-08-2012

I have tried but it didn't work.Please see my reports below which act as the replies to Alessio.

Alessio Andreoli · ‎08-08-2012

Hi QiNie,

did you try to Xmodem a new IOS in your flash? It takes time but it should work... However i would be worried about the last row:

Cause: 0x0000201C (code 7): Data Bus Error exception

HTH

Alessio

HeavenElite · ‎08-08-2012

Thank you, Alessio,I have tried this method.I download the BIN,C2950 EI AND SI IOS IMAGE,from here :

http://www.cisco.com/cisco/software/release.html?mdfid=270568146&flowid=2394&softwareid=280805680&release=12.1.22-EA14&relind=AVAILABLE&rellifecycle=ED&reltype=latest

I Send the c2950-i6q4l2-mz.121-22.EA14.bin to flash: with Xmodem Protocol,boot from it but failed.And the Crash Fault History said something about Bus error, which just like the old bin done.Then the swith began to softreset from the old bin again and again.....

Is it a hardware problem?

I deleted c2950-i6q4l2-mz.121-22.EA14.bin very easily.But the old bin still con't be removed.

Leo Laohoo · ‎08-08-2012

Another thing, you need to FORMAT the flash first before you load IOS version EA14 back. If you don't format your flash (via ROMmon), you will not have enough space to put the IOS in.

HeavenElite · ‎08-08-2012

When I attempted to send the EA14 there,I checked the space is very enough.So I put it in and run it then failed.

But format it must can delete the old one.I will do this.
