Cisco 4503 starts in ROMMON 1 after every power outage

Hi All,

  I have configured a 4503 with SUP7L-E as a core switch for our infrastructure. But after every power outage the switch comes in ROMMON. After that I have to manually type "boot" to boot up the sysytem.

 Please find the below " sh version" and "sh bootvar " and its results.

  Is this due to a damaged flash ? Please help me in this .....

Thanks In Advance,

AMR

Hi 

sh bootvar Output

BOOT variable =    >>>>> It shows Empty

try to use boot system command, format would be

(config)#boot system <PATH of IOS Image>

wr

Then execute sh bootvar again and check for any entry there, If yes, Power Off and Power On again and check whether it's booting normally or not ?

Thanks
