Sounds like you're on the right track... corrupted FLASH. Find the image
you want to place in FLASH, go to enable, copy TFTP FLASH (dy default you
will be asked to erase the current FLASH code), cross your fingers after the
IOS down load (waiting for the Check Sum to verify), then change your
config-register back to 0x2102, reload, & reconfig. That should be it...
Phil
PS- if the Check Sum fails, you may have software issue... but, if it all
worked before... you may have hardware issue :-(
