NX-OS 9k stuck in loader> mode

[Hiranmayi.Upadhyayula]

I do not have an image file on the tftp server. I was trying to reboot the server so I can test out my new config file through the POAP process and I got into the loader mode. I can set up the ip address and gateway through the loader commands but I don't know how to load an image from the switch. What can I do? How do I copy the image into my tftp server? Kindly help!

My current dir looks like this: 

bootflash::

lost+found
.patch
.rpmstore
n9000-epld.9.2.2.img
home
bios_daemon.dbg
.swtam
virtual-instance

Please refer to this Cisco weblink for the loader prompt procedures.

Hi Jay,
Thank you. I followed the reference link and tried to load the image from my tftp server but it aborts after the following step:
"Filesystem type is tftp, using whole disk"

What am I missing? Kindly help.

can you provide the whole log from where you define the tftpboot path cli
