The IOS of the 1941 is stored in a CF in Slot 0. 

What happens if the CF is removed?

After removing flash, it is going is boot loop, but rommon is not coming

Console into the router, remove the flash, reboot.  Post the entire bootup process.

1. Power down the router.  
2. Power up the router. 
3. When the line "Readonly ROMMON initialized" appears, keep bashing the Ctrl+Break key like mad.

Tried the same 10-12 times but neither rommon appears not the router reset prompt

Are you using a USB-to-Console adapter?
