Hi Guys,
I am looking for some help as I hit obstacles and I think that I have tried all possible options, to get this issue resolved.
So I was converting Nexus 9332C from NX-OS mode to ACI mode to version aci-n9000-dk9.14.2.6o.bin and at some point process just stopped.
I tried different methods from bootflash and usb1 and result is exactly the same.
I was thinking that possible BIOS or EPLD are not correct but they look alright.

I used the below too, to try to sort out the issue and nothing.
loader> cmdline recoverymode=1
loader> cmdline init_system
loader> boot <aci-image-name>
Loader > cmdline init_system clear_config clear_log
The another method (below) is not working as need be done from ACI mode already.
cd /bootflash
setup-bootvars.sh aci-n9000-dk9.14.2.6o.bin
cat /mnt/cfg/0/boot/grub/menu.lst.local
setup-clean-config.sh and reload

I am suspecting that problem is with covering process as I have compared our production Spine switches and we have matching BIOS and EPLD also I tried to convert different switches and I am getting the same.
I can provide more outputs or some specific part if needed but really I stuck and no clue what next.
Now, I would appreciate any advice or anything which would allow me to resolve this crazy issue.
Regards,
Tom
