Hi all,
I have a problem with cisco 6509 sup-2ge engine. When i'm trying to boot an IOS image from the bootflash device i received this error
Warning: Rommon NVRAM area is corrupted. Initialize the area to default values
Cat6k-MSFC2 platform with 131072 Kbytes of main memory
Could anybody help?
Thanks!

Hi Karen,
Is the config register 0x2102?
Can you post "sh ver"?

Hi Karen, This is because of NVRAM corruption/exception at rommon.
please contact Cisco TAC for RMA

Thanks for the link Osamah,
I've followed the steps in the document, but again there is a problem. When i'm trying to download the boot loader from slot0: to bootflash: there is a message
%Download failed
I don't know what is the reason.
