I would wait. This image will take a long time to boot.

Hi @IG ,

It could be a problem with the resources you allocated to the XRv9k. How much resources did you allocate to it? The recommended values are as follow:

Cisco IOS XRv 9000 Router platform

At a very minimum, 10 GB of DRAM and 2 vCPUs are required.
It is recommended to use 16 GB and 4 vCPUs.

It has nothing to do with the resources.....I have allocated the recommended amount and I have the same problem....
