Hello Hugo,

If you get the following while performing the disk0 check

ciscoasa# fsck flash: 
Unsupported file system type! 

%Error checking flash: (No such file or directory) 
ciscoasa# 

Then we will need to proceed to format the flash and upload a new image.

Any other question..Sure.. Just remember to rate all of my answers.

[Harish Balakrishnan]

Harish,

I formatted the fdisk, but now when I am restarting the ASA showme ROMMON and it doesn't start the IOS automaticaly.

What can I do?

[Harish Balakrishnan · Accepted solution]

Hello Hugo,

Did you manage to copy the IOS to disk0: before reloading the ASA . from rommon using boot command are you able to boot the ASA ?

from rommon, perform dir or dir disk0: to see whether you have image on the disk.. if its not there.. follow the beloe link  to upoad the IOS to ASA
