Hello all
I'm having issues recovering a 4948E while trying to install the latest image, I found several references to rommon recovery but nothing specific to an instance where you have a scenario where during a file transfer a partial image was left as "invalid" see below - When doing a show bootflash before the initial reload after changing my boot option I did not see the "invalid" file, but now it shows in the bootflash.
I tried a boot bootflash:cat4500-entservicesk9-mz.150-2.SG9.bin, but I still can't get it to boot the new image,
Can this be caused by the "invalid" partial image?
Thanks in advance

The file size is incorrect.
Can you please try booting the OLD IOS first? Once the old IOS is booted, delete the two newer IOS.
