Hi,

please log the booting process in a file & paste here to check the exact reason, generally it happens when device don't have any IOS file or IOS file is corrupt or somehow device not able to load the IOS in the DRAM.

 do you wish to save this configuration? y/n  [n]:  y
 You must reset or power cycle for new configuration to take effect

 

Again i am going rommon mode

 

 

 

Syed, 

 

Post the entire bootup process.  We all want to see WHY the appliance keeps going into ROMmon.
