"PASSWORD RECOVERY FUNCTIONALITY IS DISABLED" and no IOS

Hi,

I accidentally deleted the IOS on a C886 before reloading. Not really a problem, but “no service password-recovery” is configured. Now the router is booting in a loop and I can't get into ROMMON to install a new IOS. BREAK doesn't work either, as it is intercepted by the IOS, which is no longer there... what can I do?

Removing the CR2032 battery and pressing/holding the reset button has no effect at all.

BR,
Jens
