Here's the answer to your question. Since I've answered this twice
previously, a search should have turned up the answer in the groupstudy
archives. I'm surprised you didn't get any hits from the search engine...
It won't cause any problems in the future unless you intend to run from the
mini-IOS long-term.

Subject: RE: %SYS-4-CONFIG_NEWER
Actually, the message indicating "%SYS-4-CONFIG_NEWER" is generated by the
bootstrap code in reference to the the startup-config information stored in
NVRAM. If the bootstrap mini-IOS code is of a version less than the full
IOS version loaded within the router, this warning will appear during the
boot sequence.
The warning indicates that the "config is newer" than the mini-IOS within
the bootstrap--should the full IOS fail and the router be required to use
the mini-IOS bootstrap image, some commands "may not be correctly
understood".
It's just a cautionary note -- one that's really not well understood in
industry I think, but why should it be? How often does an administrator not
have a properly working full IOS and has to rely on the mini-IOS within the
router?

Subject: bootstrap error mesg
A 2514 router gives the following complains when boots
up:
%SYS-4-CONFIG_NEWER: Configurations from version 11.2
may not be correctly understood.

Should I be concerned about this? Would it cause any
problems down the road?
Full reload capture is below.
