Hello Cisco experts,
I bought a used ASA 5510 two months ago for my lab gear, it was working super fine, but two days ago i turned on my ASA to work with and i found my self on the ROMMON, i know that it's tooo weird but even me i can't understand how come,
any way, moved to resolve the issue, i successfully uploaded asa724.bin via tftp then boot from, but the climax here is when i try to manually reboot, ASA asks if i need enter to ROMMON mode, otherwise keep looping trying to find the boot image.
So to work with ASA, i'm supposed to upload and image and keep the ASA ON, because simply if i reboot it i'll will need to re-upload image again,
NOTE: after uploading image and boot with, i noticed that my old running configuation is safe.
bellow some output commands:
