Cisco 1921 - after clear of license - rommon Signature DID NOT VERIFY

[albertopriamo]

Hi guys,

i'm Alberto and i need your help.

I was doing some test on my router Cisco 1921 - ipsec configuration.

To stop the evaluation time, i wrote the command:

license boot module c1900 technology-package securityk9 disable

end

write

reload

Now the router goes always in rommon prompt.

I tried to give another ios without good results...

Below it is what brought me back:

boot: cannot load "usbflash0:c1900-universalk9-mz.SPA.152-2.T.bin"

Uhhhh ... This issue has NOTHING to do with license.  The router couldn't boot the IOS that was supposed to be found in the USB drive.  

Post the complete output to the following command: 

1.  dir flash:

2.  dir usbflash0:

This is output:

rommon 1 > dir flash:
program load complete, entry point: 0x80903000, size: 0x4c4a0
Directory of flash:

2 65229700 -rw- c1900-universalk9-mz.SPA.152-2.T.bin

rommon 2 > dir usbflash0:
program load complete, entry point: 0x80903000, size: 0x4c4a0
Directory of usbflash0:

2 65229700 -rw- c1900-universalk9-mz.SPA.152-2.T.bin

Try this command from ROMmon:  boot flash:c1900-universalk9-mz.SPA.152-2.T.bin

i've already done... but nothing... even with another ios..

rommon 11 > boot flash:c1900-universalk9-mz.SPA.152-2.T.bin
program load complete, entry point: 0x80903000, size: 0x4c4a0

Try a different IOS, preferably an "M" train.
