Press RETURN to get started!

You don't want the asterisks in the filename, so try and rename the file in flash.  A copy flash flash command may help there.

Also try the following boot statement:

boot system flash:c2801-advipservicesk9-mz.124-15.XZ2.bin

Thats what I normally use so it should work for you.

Regards, Ash.

So I suspect that there is a memory problem.

Hello aleemuddin,

Have you verified this IOS MD5 values, please download a fresh IOS and get the MD5 values from Cisco. then run "md5sum" command you will get one values in Router. Compare this values with the values you got from Cisco. If both are same IOS image is no corrupted in the process of upgrade.

==> run "md5sum "

==>  Again and make sure the md5 value is correct

If you feel that this Image is still working on other Routers then please ignore my steps here and at least aware of this how to do in future.

==>  If the space is not enough, you need to delete one old backup IOS temporarily
  -->  to delete old backup IOS, you need to make sure that old IOS is not the one current is running ("sh ver" tells you the current running on)
  -->  then run "delete :"
  -->  in above example, if you need to delete ..... just type "delete "
  --> After that, verify the memory status.

Note : If some of this steps not useful now, may be useful in future.

Thanks

Hi!

I recently upgraded the IOS of our Cisco 2801 from ROMMON status.

I successfully sent the IOS using tftpdnld then I command boot flash:('new IOS name"), it hangup for hours.

so I decided to put out the main power and return its power after a minute.

After reboot this was the message displayed on my HyperTerminal.

After this nothing happens. Same thing when I first command to boot the IOS.

Is this thing still in good condition? This is my first encounter.

Thank you.

No it's not.  The file you copied into the CF is either corrupt of not complete.  Eject the CF and stick it into a card reader and copy the IOS from your client to the CF card reader.

If the CF is ejected on the router while on its network operation, will the CF be corrupted or damaged? Its because I suspected that somebody made a mistake of pulling the CF out while it is operational. We forgot to put a note or tape on the slot. Am still looking for a card reader so haven't check my CF yet. 128MB is the maximux supported by router, am I right? Thank you so much LEOLAOHOO

If the CF is ejected on the router while on its network operation, will the CF be corrupted or damaged?

Never seen this happen before.  But my previous post can explain your issue and it's not because someone ejected the CF during the read/write operation of the router.

128MB is the maximux supported by router, am I right?

Maximum supported by an ISR G1 (except 850, 860, 870, 880 and 890) CF size is 2Gb.
