Hello everybody, I just bought a Cisco 3550 48SMI with an old EMI image installed, so I decided to upgrade it to c3550-ipservicesk9-mz.122-50.SE3.bin and here the probleme started... After the upgrade I got this Error Message ( Loading "c3550-ipservicesk9-mz.122-50.SE3.bin"...c3550-ipservicesk9-mz.122-50.SE3.bin: permission denied
Error loading "c3550-ipservicesk9-mz.122-50.SE3.bin"), I tried flushing the flash and re-upload it again and still the same error message, also, how can I install the Cisco Network Assistant on the Switch? Any help will be appreciated...

As shown above there is a fan fault, it only appears when the switch boots, but the weird thing is that when I do show env all or show env fan it shows that fan is okey! Any hint guys? Thanks in advance....

Since the "show version of old ios" show the switch works -- I'd guess a corrupt ios or bad boot command in the configuration
What do you see in rommon?
Do a flash_init and a directory listing of the flash -- is the file there and does the directory/name match the error
Did you try the load_helper & boot commands? Anything?
You can try the upgrade again using XMODEM.:mike: Cisco Certifications -- Collect the Entire Set! -

Everybody should do an XMODEM load at least once anyway. Its good practise for if you ever need to do it in the field and its also a huge incentive to never screw up badly enough that you need one.Painfully slow, but a very good recommendation!
Remember to change the baud rate though before doing the XMODEM upload since it will take forever at 9600... -
