Hi All 

Can you please check and let me know what the problem is. After a power failure, the switch got stuck in ROM monitor and unable to boot from flash or USB below are the errors.

From Flash:

switch: boot flash:packages.conf

Getting rest of image
Reading full image into memory...Check base package header ...: done = 16384
Getting rest of image
Reading full image into memory...
Autoboot process terminated...
Reading full base package into memory...
Autoboot process terminated...

Error loading "flash:packages.conf"
Boot process failed...

 

From USB:

switch: boot usbflash0:/cat3k_caa-universalk9.16.06.08.SPA.bin
Reading full image into memory...
Autoboot process terminated...
usbflash0:/cat3k_caa-universalk9.16.06.08.SPA.bin: unknown error
usbflash0:/cat3k_caa-universalk9.16.06.08.SPA.bin: bad/non-bootable bundle file

Error loading "usbflash0:/cat3k_caa-universalk9.16.06.08.SPA.bin"

Interrupt within 5 seconds to abort boot process.
Boot process terminated.

 

Thanks
