4321 Router - How to delete Boot system .. boot marker

[Jagadish2]

Hi,

We recently upgraded the IOS on 4321 router. While removing the old boot system marker we are seeing an error message.

%Error parsing bootflash:/isr4300-universalk9.17.03.04a.SPA.bin (No such file or directory)

the above said image has been deleted from the bootflash

Please suggest how to delete this from boot marker.".isr4300-universalk9.17.03.04a.SPA.bin"

current config on router.

boot-start-marker
boot system bootflash:isr4300-universalk9.17.03.04a.SPA.bin
boot system bootflash:isr4300-universalk9.17.09.05a.SPA.bin
boot system bootflash:isr4300-universalk9.17.09.03a.SPA.bin
boot-end-marker

Trying to delete the first one.

Router 1(config)#boot-start-marker
Router 1(config)#no boot system bootflash:isr4300-universalk9.17.03.04a.SPA.bin
%Error parsing bootflash:isr4300-universalk9.17.03.04a.SPA.bin (No such file or directory)
Router 1(config)#boot-end-marker

      >...Router 1(config)#boot-start-marker
  You don't need to type that command ; just 
Router 1(config)# no boot system bootflash:isr4300-universalk9.17.03.04a.SPA.bin
  You may also try .
   Router 1(config)# no boot system 
   first to clear everything and set the image you want to boot with 
   Router 1(config)#  boot system...

Its complaing about no files, do you have Files in the bootflash:

dir bootflash: (check the files)

dir

if not as suggested remove complete boot variable and make sure you add new boot variable (do not forget to write the config)

then check show boot (before you reload)
