Flash Upgrde problem on Cisco 2600 [7:5001]
In order to increase flash on my 2600 Router I ordered 16MB Kingston Flash. I removed the original 8 MB flash and inserted this new 16MB flash and the message I am getting is: rommon 1 > boot device does not contain a valid magic number boot: cannot open "flash:" boot: cannot determine first file name on device "flash:" What should I do for the router to recognize this new flash??

Re: Flash Upgrde problem on Cisco 2600 [7:5001]
The router is recognizing the new flash, that message is Cisco's slightly cryptic way of telling you that there is no image on that flash yet. You'll need to send a break signal to get to ROMMON mode and download an image with either TFTP (through the ethernet port) or xmodem (through the console port). You can find the instructions to do that on Cisco's website. If you run into problems, let us know.

I tried a blank flash with the 3620 router and got the same problem. I could not even assign an IP address to the ethernet port so I can download from tftp the new ios image. I had to use the xmodem using the console port. It took me like 30 minutes with the 115kbps speed ""John Neiberger"" wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > The router is recognizing the new flash, that message is Cisco's > slightly cryptic way of telling you that there is no image on that flash > yet.
