About N6K 6001 loader> prompt

[Asma.Daghar]

Hello, 

My N6K went to loader>prompt after I issued inti system. Now I can't get it to boot from a tftp server. 

I tried all the tftp servers you can think of 

1. tftpd32 and tftpd64 

2. Pumpkin

3. Solar Wind

4. TFTP Cisco 

non of them worked. When I issue boot tftp:// command it loads the image and shows me the progress but right when it reach to the end it gives me an error file or directory statement.

I changed the block sixe, checked unchecked PXE, changed the timeout time. NO LUCK!

was wondering if anyone have any idea what to do to boot the image from the tftp server.

P.S. there is no USB option in the loader>

Thanks, A

Did you ever get this resolved?  And out of curiosity when you were able to pull the image via tftp, did you happen to ping the mgmt0 interface?  I'm curious if ICMP just doesn't work on the mgmt0 interface but tftp will....when in loader mode.

Thanks!
