RE: Router Bootup Problem
It's either you have just replaced your flash ram (upgrade) or the flash ram has been erased. TFTP the backup copy of the image. If you have just installed new ram, the instruction should have been included. If not I will post.

Re: Router Bootup Problem
Sounds like you're on the right track... corrupted FLASH. Find the image you want to place in FLASH, go to enable, copy TFTP FLASH (dy default you will be asked to erase the current FLASH code), cross your fingers after the IOS down load (waiting for the Check Sum to verify), then change your config-register back to 0x2102, reload, & reconfig. That should be it... Phil PS- if the Check Sum fails, you may have software issue... but, if it all worked before... you may have hardware issue :-( - Original Message - From: "Peter Gray" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, September 19, 2000 10:59 PM Subject: Router Bootup Problem > I have got a corrupt flash on my router.

Re: Router Bootup Problem
Actually, I had this exact message this morning on a 2620. This is what it reports when there is no IOS present in FLASH. In my case, I had just upgraded from 8 to 16 MB of FLASH so, of course, there was no software present. Also, a 2600 has only one slot for FLASH. > Unfortunatley, this won't work.

Re: Router Bootup Problem
Unfortunatley, this won't work. The router is not saying there is no IOS it is saying that either the flash is bad or that it has not been partitioned. If you have an older flash for same router, put it back into the router in the first slot and the new flash into the second slot. When the router finds the IOS on the old flash and boots, go into config mode and partition the flash. - Original Message - From: "Evan Francen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'Peter Gray'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, September 19, 2000 4:25 PM Subject: RE: Router Bootup Problem > Have you ever opened the case on this router before.

Re: Router Bootup Problem
In Rommon mode if you type tftpdnld it will give you instructions on how to download a new IOS to the Flash pat attention to syntax it is case sensitive and at the end type reset to reload the router! You should be all set after that!
