ASA 5510 Boot failure

Leo Jensen
Level 1

My ASA 5510 Suddenly stopped working - now it hangs in this boot loop.

After 5 attempts to boot it hangs.

I have tried hardware reset. Nothing happens.

Any help appreciated

Booting system, please wait...

It could be a hardware issue.

Was there any software/hardware/configuration change on this ASA before the issue happened?

There has been no hardware or software change for a long time.

I do suspect hardware failure, but I would expect an error message indication the nature of error.

Was it all info you saw in the console that you provided in your first post.

If yes, it did not launch bootloader.I guess you might have to replace it.

Yes the boot sequence as provided in first post repeated it selves 5 times then the ASA halted.
