IOS error

[novell202]

I have a router 3640 and they have some error in ios. I just boot in rommon..... what I do to reinitialize the router??

In the flash memory I have a c3640-is-mz.xxx.bin, but when I write in rommon: boot flash, the router juste turn a round.....

If I recall, in rom monitor type

o/r 0x2102

i (initialize)

This should reintialize the router to boot from NVRAM.

Once it's booted you have to go into global config and change the register to 0x2102 and save it to make it permanent.

Router#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Router(config)#config
Router(config)#config-register 0x2102
Router(config)#end

you should then do a "show ver" and you should see that your register is 0x2142 (0x2102 after next reload).

If the flash max's out your memory, you have to erase the flash (router#erase flash prior to the upgrade.

Have you looked here?

How much flash and RAM do you have in that 3640? Based on the image that you mentioned (IP Plus), you need 8 megs of Flash and 32 megs of RAM. Those are minimum requirements for that IOS image, you don't have that much it will not load the image.

Sorry the minimum for a 3640 with that IOS image should be 16megs of Flash and 64megs of DRAM.
