Sounds like you erased a lot more than you thought.
One of the files in the 2950 has a list of variables with one line being "BOOT = < ios-image-name >
Seems this line has been blanked somehow.... Hopefully not the whole file...
Think I once had this during and IOS upgrade and to correct it, I dropped to rommon and typed in set boot=image name and then boot it back up with the boot loader. Seemed to do the trick once you get the syntax correct.Kam.
