Until you upgrade your bootrom to 12.0 (from 11.0) you will always get that
message.
Or, you could always go back to an 11.?? IOS version. ;)

Subject: RE: 2509 start-up message!! Still not working....


Hi there,

I have tried the recommendations made and it still doesn't work.  As
mentioned previously I get the following error at start-up:

> %SYS-4-CONFIG_NEWER: Configurations from version 12.0 may not be correctly
> under stood.

I have tried the "write mem" and "reload" commands after upgrading the
image, but no joy!!  The registry key is set to 0x2102 which is ok.

What is the remedy for the above warning message?

Another problem is that the router tries to resolve the actual hostname
after the boot/POST check:

Translating "RouterC_TermServ"

==================END OF ROUTER OUTPUT DUMP=====================

As you can see on the very last line the IOS is trying to resolve the actual
hostname "RouterC_TermServ".  The router stops responding at this stage just
before it gets to the user level (Router>) prompt.  I press the Return/Enter
key several times but nothing happens.

I found the only way around this is to physically re-boot the router, go
into boot mode, change the registry from 0x2102 to 0x2142.
Once the image is loaded, I go into privilege mode and change the registry
key back to 0x2102.
I issue the "no ip domain-lookup" command to stop the Router name from
resolving, I then do "write mem", "reload".

The router starts to work fine at this stage.

But when I physically turn the Router off (or issue a reload command during
the small lab exercises I do), it goes back to the same problem of trying to
(Translating "RouterC_TermServ") just before it gets to the user level
prompt.

I have also changed the flash modules to see if that will make any change
but still the same problem?

Any hints on this issue to save me from going through all this each time I
turn the Router on?

Thxs again,
Ash

Ok, Leigh-Anne Chisholm gives a pretty good post in answer to this thread.

I'm going to bounce one of my lab routers now and watch it.
