I recently upgraded our Cisco 3925 with the latest firmware and it returned a segmentation fault. I restarted it and now the console port won't connect. Any ideas on how to restore the flash to a rescue configuration?
Is it storing its configs on an external flash? My other thought is that if the console port has reverted to default settings, which could have been reconfigured in the running-config that your router had before it rebooted.
Don't you get any output on the console port, even no bootloader? If you could access the bootloader, you can try to flash a new firmware image with xmodem...
I can't seem to connect to the router through the tty. It gave me a segmentation fault and never came up again. I am using internal flash, the regular disk. I just changed the boot image and then committed it. It failed and I haven't been able to get it to work...
Sounds like a really bad problem. I don't think there is a simple way of recovery then. If you have checked that baud rate and everything else is correct and you still can't access even the bootloader, you'd better have a service agreement for the device. Sorry.
