Hello community,
I have two 1572eac outdoor Access points and I want to configure them as a bridge between to buildings. Both of them are booting a LWAPP-Image, but I want them to be autonomous.
Directory of flash:/

As you can see there are two images in the flash of the access point. One for LWAPP and an IOS-Image. When I try to boot the IOS-Image the process fails and a message appears that the ap isn't able to load the firmware of the radio interfaces.

Radio FW image download failed ....
Next, I downloaded the newest TAR-File from Cisco and copied it with TFTP on the access point.
After the copy process I booted the ap with the command ap: boot (forgot to unset boot) and he boots the lwapp-Image. I saw my failure and interrupted the boot process to execute the command: ap: boot flash:c1570-k9w7-mx.153-3.JD/c1570-k9w7-mx.153-3.JD
The ap boots but he cannot find the files for the Radio interfaces

So, is my approach wrong or did I miss something?
And there is something strange. The Flash contains files like These:
ap: dir flash:c1570-k9w7-mx.153-3.JD/
Directory of flash:c1570-k9w7-mx.153-3.JD//

445 -rwx 1371 <date> img_sign_rel_sha2.cert
6319104 bytes available (34839552 bytes used)
And in the error message the software is looking for these files:
File not found: flash:c1570-k9w7-mx.153-3.JD/c1570-k9w7-mx.153-3.JD8004.img
File not found: flash:c1570-k9w7-mx.153-3.JD/c1570-k9w7-mx.153-3.JDL5.bin

File not found: flash:c1570-k9w7-mx.153-3.JD/c1570-k9w7-mx.153-3.JD8006.img
Is there a naming problem or did I something wrong with the boot command?
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Daniel
