Router not booting up after Image upgrade.

[examples20001]

Hi

I upgraded the Cisco ISR 2821 with IOS c2800nm-advsecurityk9-mz.124-5. My old image is c2800nm-advsecurityk9-mz.124-3a After the upgrade, I reloaded the system. After that, router is not booting up. I see the message like below:

Hello,

you might want to try and increase iomem:

rommon> iomemset 15

and reload the router, see if that makes a difference.

Hi

Thank you very much for the reply.

I configured the iomemset 15 and rebooted the system, but same error is showing and router is not booting up.

Any other method please...

rommon 2 > iomemset 15

Invoking this command will change the io memory percent

Hi,

I uploaded the .bin file to the router with CNA(cisco network assistance) software. After upload, the CNA asked for reload the router. After reload the router is not booting up.

Should I have to upload the .tar file insted of .bin file?

I think the router flash has got two .bin files now.

One the old image 12.4(3a) and the new image 12.4(5).

Hi,

Thank you very much for the support.

The image was corrupted, after uploading a new image, the router booted properly.
