6500 in ROMMON : cannot load the monitor library "bootdisk:%c7200-atafslib-m"

Hi,

While trying to upgrade 6500 IOS from 12.2SX33 to 15.1(2) code I get the ROMMON mode and it give the "cannot load the monitor library bootdisk:%c7200-atafslib-m" error message. I formatted the bootflash before loading the new image. Now I can't even load the 12.2SX33 image from the supbootflash. 

 

Any idea??

Hi,

To load IOS 15 on the 6500 series, you need a minimum of 512Mb RAM and 512Mb Flash.

a few questions:

1-what type of supervisor do you have?

2-how much memory and flash do you have?
