Chris, I've been seeing the same thing one one of my j4350's after upgrading to 8.4R2.4. The only result of a ticket opened with Juniper was that the first tech could reproduce the problem in the lab, the next tech could not, then ultimatly they blamed it on the USB key I was using (even when I used a supported one). I'm hoping it is an issue that will just magically fix itself in the next revision... as I cannot reboot the router just to get it to recognize the USB key to snapshot.

However, it didn't boot from the resulting USB key - it just said missing OS (and then after a timeout booted from CF). I was trying to upgrade to 8.5 (which requires more CF space), following these directions: http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/software/jseries/junos85/rn-jseries-85/increasing-the-compact-flash-space.html#increase-cf-space-section Has anyone done this? -- Chris Adams <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble. _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
