  • 1.  Cannot load SRX image from bootloader

    Posted 09-04-2012 20:00

    Hi Everyone,

    Iam currently stuck with a SRX 210, which failed when I  tried to upgrade from 9.6 to 10.0.

    I followed the KB  http://kb.juniper.net/InfoCenter/index?page=content&id=KB14175&smlogin=true

    but this did not help.

    Iam getting stuck at db> prompt

    10.0R1.8 is the first release to support the SRX-210. Can you try with something a little more recent?

    Sounds like the unit needs a bootloader upgrade. Starting with 10.0 releases the SRX went into a dual-partition mode so you can have two different version of code installed at the same time. After a failed boot the SRX will fall back to the backup partition so the system can attempt to come online.

     

    In addition, try booting without the watchdog process being enabled. In the loader prompt try running watchdog disable before loading the software.

     

    Lastly, if you can extract out the boot loader from a current version of software that will help greatly. Open the tar.gz file and find the junos-boot-srxsme-VERSION.tgz in the extracted tarball. from there, open that second tgz file and extract loader and uboot files to place on your tftp server. From there:

     

    1. tftpboot 0x100000 uboot
    2. bootloader upgrade uboot active 0x100000
    3. reset
    4. Get back into the loader
    5. tftpboot 0x100000 loader
    6. bootloader upgrade loader 0x100000
    7. reset
    8. Try upgrading your software again.

    Good luck!

    Hi,

    I followed your instructions but could not find boot folder.

    I managed to get u-boot-crc.bin'. and loader.crc files from JTAC.

    I then followed your instructions, however  Iam getting a Checksum error

    Good to hear! So you can now boot 10.0 (and later) code?

    download any Junos OS example and you can find this files under the boot folder. For example,

    1. Download junos-srxsme-12.1X44-D10.4-domestic.tgz. 
    2. Unzip this file and you will get the file junos-srxsme-12.1X44-D10.4-domestic.tar.
    3. Unzip this file to get the file junos-srxsme-12.1X44-D10.4-domestic.
    4. Open this folder and you will find the file junos-boot-srxsme-12.1X44-D10.4.tgz.
    5. Unzip this file to get the file junos-boot-srxsme-12.1X44-D10.4.tar.
    6. Unzip this file to find junos-boot-srxsme-12.1X44-D10.4.
    7. Open this folder and you will find the boot folder, under which the loader and uboot files are kept.
    8. Copy the loader and uboot files to a TFTP server.
    9. rename them to loader_crc and u-boot-crc.bin respectively.
