Lastly the prompt which I am getting is Router(boot)>.

What is the actual problem and how can it be solved.

Any help is most welcome.

Is disk2 right? Probably not.

Check and reset boot variables as needed: "env" "BOOT=xxxx", etc.

Formatting bootflash: and disk2: and then re-transferring the boot image and IOS resolved the issue.

Thanks and regards.

hi

try to use "tftpdnld -r" in rommon mode. It will upload the ios in ram. Because the problem you are facing most probably with the bad flash or try to format it.
