We have tried multiple times to reflash the unit using both rommon and format flash:/ upgrade automatic getversion tftp after boot.
We have also done a write erase and reloaded config. All without luck
I am starting suspect we have a fault flash card. Can anyone point me in the right direction.
Thanks In advance
