Cisco7206VXR ios troubleshooting

how can i troubleshoot the Cisco7206VXR ios. i've got Rommon prompt.

Thanks for your help

The first thing to do is to see if you have an IOS image in flash. dir flash:. If you do, try booting it, boot flash:filename.

Have a look at your configuration register (confreg from ROMMON or show vers from IOS). It should be 0x2102.

If you can boot, and the configuration register is correct, have a look at the system boot commands in the config.

Otherwise, post the console output during boot and we can have a look at it.

Let us know.

What actually happens when you try and boot from boot bootflash:filename ? Could you post the output please, as well as that from the dir commands?

I had similiar issues with a 7206VXR with a G1 processor. It would only boot code 12.3 and above. Try a code in the 12.3 family and it may work.
