Cisco 7600 Boot issue and SPA issue

flipmad

I have a Cisco 7604 that is booting immediately into ROMMON with valid images on both the Compact Flash (disk0:) and bootdisk

In ROMMON mode I check the following

ROMMON>set
AT this point it shows to boot the bootflash image

I executed the following
ROMMON>BOOT=disk0:filename.bin
ROMMON>sync

I check my set command again and it shows my new command entered. I execute a reset and it boots right back into ROMMON.

When I do the following

ROMMON>boot
It boots just fine into the bootflash image

ROMMON>boot system disk0:filename.bin
It boots just fine into the CF image

But If I do not force it to boot, it goes straight to ROMMON until I force it with the above commands.


Any ideas?

Secondly,

I have a SIP-600 which had a bad fpd version which I updated. But it will not recognize the SPA-10XGE in the subslot.

I get the following messages:
*Aug 11 13:13:17.247: %SPA_EEPROM-3-FIELD_NOT_FOUND: SPA N/A: Failed to find con
tent of field type 0xCC with data size = 36 bytes. The EEPROM might require an update.

when I execute a sh idprom module 2/0 detail I get eeprom version 0

I cannot find any helpful information

Regarding the boot issue, Under sh bootvar it shows my image in slot0: but does not boot properly

Is the configuration register set correctly?

Use of the Configuration Register on All Cisco Routers - Cisco Systems

Yes sir, my config-register is 0x2102

I think it has to do with the bootflash, sup-bootflash and disk images. With the SP and RP on these things. I need to get a grasp on the boot process to determine where it is failing.

flipmad

ACTUALLY, you were right! Seems the Supervisor and the msfc3 have configuration registers. My sh ver showed 0x2102, but I also had to execute a confreg in ROMMON to make it work..

Now all I have to do is make sure it boots the right image and its onto my SIP issue lol

Thanks again!
