IOS image recovery problem

[ddicky]

I have lost my IOS image on my C1750 router and I'm copying back using xmodem under rommon mode and hyperterminal.the problem is after the succesfull download I reloaded the router the next time it just cound not boot up the IOS again. with the message displaying "boot:cannot open "flash:"

Ay advise

Could be a lot of things. I understand that you issued a reload from rommon?

Has the image been copied to flash OK?

Did you receive any errors during xmodem transfer?

Does the image fit in the flash?

The 1750 is a run-from-ram system. You might have loaded the image in ram. Simplest way from there is to issue a boot (i.e. NOT a reload!)

Then you get a running IOS. Invoke a new tftp upload to restore flash memory.
