Xmodem I/O error when copy IOS from tftp server

After I formatted the flash I am trying to copy the IOS from tftp server using "copy xmodem: flash:c3550-ipbasek9-mz.122-44.SE6.bin" command, in rommon mode. I am getting the I/O error message.

I did try to boot from tftp using the "set BOOT tftp:c3550-ipbasek9-mz.122-44.SE6.bin" command and then "boot" command and I get an "error loading tftp:" and  "permission denied" message.

The tftp server is active; I did copy the old IOS before.

Here is the output from my switch:

switch: flash_init

Initializing flash...

flashfs[0]: 2 files, 1 directories

flashfs[0]: 0 orphaned files, 0 orphaned directories

flashfs[0]: Total bytes: 15998976

flashfs[0]: Bytes used: 2048

flashfs[0]: Bytes available: 15996928

flashfs[0]: flashfs fsck took 12 seconds.

...done Initializing Flash.

Boot Sector Filesystem <bs:> installed, fsid: 3

switch: dir flash:

BOOT=tftp:c3550-ipbasek9-mz.122-44.SE6.bin

switch: copy xmodem: flash:c3550-ipbasek9-mz.122-44.SE6.bin

Begin the Xmodem or Xmodem-1k transfer now...

CCCCCCCxmodem:: I/O error

Help would be really apreciated.

Thank you.

I had the same Problem,

finaly it worked with Win7x64/Tera Term command copy xmodem: flash:filename.bin

when the CCC starts go to file=>Transfer=>xModem and chose CRC as Type.

baud was 9600 when succeeded but I belived 115200 would work aswell
