Hello,
I am working on an ISR4351. It is currently running version 15.5(3)S4b, and we want to update it to 17.3.4a so it can support smart licensing.
I have followed many community discussions and haven't found my problem.

I have checked file hash to make sure and it matches the one given by Cisco :
verify /md5 (bootflash:isr4300-universalk9.17.03.04a.SPA.bin) = 48992d5bb985b071648921b1e7ad4c96
MD5 Checksum : | 48992d5bb985b071648921b1e7ad4c96 |
Thank you for your help

In fact the rommon software installed was to old to boot the new IOS.
For anyone who would like to check their current version, show rom-monitor r0

- Could you try to remove / in the boot-command : boot system flash bootflash:/isr4300-universalk9.17.03.04a.SPA.bin as in
#sh run | i boot
boot-start-marker
boot system flash bootflash:isr4300-universalk9.17.03.04a.SPA.bin
boot-end-marker

hi,
you should check the 17.x release notes first and upgrade to a compatible ROMMON package 16.12(2r) before the main IOS-XE:
also remove the forward slash "/" in the boot system flash command.
#upgrade rom-monitor filename bootflash:<ROMMON.pkg> all
boot system flash bootflash:isr4300-universalk9.17.03.04a.SPA.bin
