*** TLB (Load/Fetch) Exception *** during boot of ios 15

Hello.

I have Cisco ISR 2851:

Cisco IOS Software, 2800 Software (C2800NM-SPSERVICESK9-M), Version 12.4(24)T3, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc2)

Technical Support: http://www.cisco.com/techsupport
Copyright (c) 1986-2010 by Cisco Systems, Inc.
Compiled Tue 23-Mar-10 06:44 by prod_rel_team

ROM: System Bootstrap, Version 12.4(13r)T, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)

C2851 uptime is 3 days, 14 hours, 45 minutes
System returned to ROM by reload at 23:24:57 UA Thu Mar 31 2011
System image file is "flash:c2800nm-spservicesk9-mz.124-24.t3.bin"

...
...

Cisco 2851 (revision 53.51) with 249856K/12288K bytes of memory.
Processor board ID FCZ113971U2
2 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces
2 Voice FXO interfaces
DRAM configuration is 64 bits wide with parity enabled.
239K bytes of non-volatile configuration memory.
248472K bytes of ATA CompactFlash (Read/Write)

Configuration register is 0x2102

I need to upgrade from c2800nm-spservicesk9-mz.124-24.t3.bin to c2800nm-entservicesk9-mz.151-3.T.bin. For this reason the Copact Flash was changed (I have Cisco's CF 64 MB. It was changed to Transced CF 256 MB, non-Cisco). CF was formatted with the help of cisco's format unility (in the router cli). And the c2800nm-entservicesk9-mz.151-3.T.bin was put there. But during bootng process I see the error:

Readonly ROMMON initialized

At the same time I can put on this CF old image and boot is ok. Feature Navigator says that this image needs RAM/FLASH: 256MB/128MB. My router has it. What is a problem?

Thank you.

My Cisco 1841 router had similar errors.  Root problem turned out to be an IOS bug with "warm-reboot" enabled.  The workaround to remove "warm-reboot" is a workaround for now until new IOS is released.

program load complete, entry point: 0x8000f000, size: 0x2125f14

Self decompressing the image : ######################################################################################################################################################################################################## [OK]

*** Address Error (Load/Fetch) Exception ***

Access address = 0x4010801

PC = 0x4010801, Cause = 0x10, Status Reg = 0x34410002

monitor: command "boot" aborted due to exception

From Cisco TAC support:

There is a couple of bugs about the issue:

CSCtx15376   

Router crashes aftr upgrade to 15.1(4)M3 when "warm-reboot" CLI is cfg'd

Externally found severe (Sev2) bug: D-Duplicate

Externally found severe (Sev2) bug: D-Duplicate

Internally found severe (Sev2) bug: R-Resolved

This will be fixed in 15.2(3)T and 15.1(4)M4 which is expected to be released on March 30.  The workaround is to remove the "warm-reboot" command.

Router(config)#no warm-reboot

Router(config)#exit

Router#write
