Hi,

To my understanding the ASA should only go to ROMMON if you choose it while the device is booting OR if there is no software image on the Flash memory of the ASA OR if the image file on the Flash memory is somehow corrupted.

Could you perhaps copy/paste the whole output when the ASA is booting up?

Thank you Sir.

I finally found out  the issue.

It was due to lack of IOS.
