Hi,

I explain my actions : 

The switch is power off.

I plug the Monitor USB cable (usb-mini), and run Putty (port COMX)

I power ON the switch.

I see the start of the switch

I push the MODE button.

I arrive on the prompt :    switch:

I try to execute FLASH_INIT 

but failed ...

The rest of the process to reset is not working ...

 

I have the feeling, that I don't have the exact good moment to push the MODE button.

" As soon as the System LED blinks"

>> It's a 9200L : no SYST Led ... 

I search with Visio Stencil...It's like a "S"  ?

>> It's a cogwheel .  (check the attached files, at the top of the issue)

Regards

Step 1
Connect a terminal or PC to the switch.
Connect a terminal or a PC with terminal-emulation software to the switch console port.
Connect a PC to the Ethernet management port.
Step 2
Set the line speed on the emulation software to 9600 baud.
Step 3
Power off the standalone switch or the entire switch stack.
Step 4
Reconnect the power cord to the switch or the active switch. As soon as the System LED blinks, press and release the Mode button 2-3 times. The switch enters the ROMMON mode.
The following console messages are displayed during the reload:
Proceed to the Procedure with Password Recovery Enabled section, and follow the steps.
Step 5
After recovering the password, reload the switch or the active switch.
On a switch:
Switch> reload
Proceed with reload? [confirm] y

Step 1
Ignore the startup configuration with the following command:

Switch: SWITCH_IGNORE_STARTUP_CFG=1

Step 2
Boot the switch with the packages.conf file from flash.

Switch: boot flash:packages.conf

Step 3
Terminate the initial configuration dialog by answering No.

Would you like to enter the initial configuration dialog? [yes/no]: No

Step 4
At the switch prompt, enter privileged EXEC mode.

Switch> enable
Switch#

Step 5
Copy the startup configuration to running configuration.

Switch# copy startup-config running-config Destination filename [running-config]?

Press Return in response to the confirmation prompts. The configuration file is now reloaded, and you can change the password.
Step 6
Enter global configuration mode and change the enable password.

Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)#

Step 7
Write the running configuration to the startup configuration file.

Switch(config)# copy running-config startup-config

Step 8
Confirm that manual boot mode is enabled.

Switch# show boot

BOOT variable = flash:packages.conf;
Manual Boot = yes
Enable Break = yes

Step 9
Reload the device.

Switch# reload

Step 10
Boot the device with the packages.conf file from flash.

Switch: boot flash:packages.conf

Step 11
After the device boots up, disable manual boot on the device.

Switch(config)# no boot manual

This worked for me...
