Cannot boot ISR 4321

I cannot boot this router for the life of me. I am stuck in rommon. The image is there:

 

rommon 1 > dir bootflash:

0   0         drw-     lost+found
0   0         drw-     .prst_sync
0   0         drw-     .installer
0   0         drw-     core
0   0         drw-     .rollback_timer
0   0         -rw-     tracelogs.548
0   0         drw-     tracelogs
0   30        -rw-     throughput_monitor_params
0   549586049 -rw-     isr4300-universalk9.16.06.02.SPA.bin

When I do

 

boot bootflash:isr4300-universalk9.16.06.02.SPA.bin

The router just boots to rommon again.

 

rommon 1 > boot usb1:isr4300-universalk9.16.06.02.SPA.bin
boot: unsupported boot device "usb1"

Try this...

boot system flash bootflash:isr4300-universalk9.16.06.02.SPA.bin

I think the syntax is the issue.

First of course you need to do this...

no boot bootflash:isr4300-universalk9.16.06.02.SPA.bin

Now I'm having  a different issue, i cannot delete the tftp from bootvar

Router(config)#do sh bootvar
BOOT variable = tftp:\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ 255.255.255.255,12;bootflash:/isr4300-universalk9.16.06.02.SPA.bin,12;
CONFIG_FILE variable does not exist
BOOTLDR variable does not exist
Configuration register is 0x2102

I tried replacing it with

boot system flash bootflash:isr4300-universalk9.16.06.02.SPA.bin

Can't do it

 

You need to run the command...

clear configure boot

 

and then put the correct boot config in.
