Incompatible MEM3800-256CF with CISCO3825

[ednacastro]

Is there a compatible issue with CISCO3825 and PN MEM3800-256CF ? We have 2 flash cards that are not booting in the router. The error we get is :

boot: cannot open "flash:"
boot: cannot determine first executable file name on device "flash:"

Any ideas?

Maybe the CF are NOT formatted correctly.  

What happens if you enter the format command of "format flash:"?

WARNING:  All contents in the target CF will be deleted.  Backup the contents first before invoking the command.
