3850 in ROMMON

supernova_6
Level 1
Level 1

Hoping for some help as I'm stuck in rommon mode on a switch after converting from Install Mode to Bundle Mode.

I followed the article, (see file2 attached)

 

I forgot to put the name of the .bin file on the end....although upon further inspection I don't have a .bin file. I only have a set of .pkg files, (see file1 attached). I before realizing, I rebooted the switch and now I'm stuck in rommon mode. DOH! 

 

I have tried to flash_init and setting the switch to boot from flash but with no success, my bootloader version is CAT3K_CAA Boot Loader (CAT3K_CAA-HBOOT-M) Version 3.58

 

Help please guys!

try:

 

boot flash:/packages.conf

 

Don't forget to update the bootvar once you load IOS-XE up!

 

cheers,

Seb.

that's done it, thank you.

I've just followed the "Converting from Bundle Mode to Install Mode" and updated the bootvar as suggested which now reads...

Current Boot Variables:
BOOT variable = flash:packages.conf;

Boot Variables on next reload:
BOOT variable = flash:packages.conf;
Manual Boot = no
Enable Break = no
Boot Mode = DEVICE
iPXE Timeout = 0
