asa5505 boot problem

Hello,

We have an ASA firewall that now when connected to the serial console I can see stops booting at the line:

Cisco Systems ROMMON Version (1.0(12)13) #0: Thu Aug 28 15:55:27 PDT 2008

Is there anything that can be done to resolve the issue or is it a new box required?

Thanks

if the device is booting to ROMMON means the IOS (software) has been deleted from flash

hi dave,

sounds like it could be dodgy RAM in that case then try replacing and see if the unit then fully boots to ROMMON
