After the Router rebooted it now hangs after ROMMON version message.
The hardware info doesn't appear anymore.

Here's the capture of the terminal console session. I'm using ZOC.

Last successful boot:

Use this command for disaster recovery only to recover an image via TFTP.
Monitor variables are used to set up parameters for the transfer.

"ctrl-c" or "break" stops the transfer before flash erase begins.


The following variables are REQUIRED to be set for tftpdnld:
IP_ADDRESS: The IP address for this unit
IP_SUBNET_MASK: The subnet mask for this unit
DEFAULT_GATEWAY: The default gateway for this unit
TFTP_SERVER: The IP address of the server to fetch from
TFTP_FILE: The filename to fetch


The following variables are OPTIONAL:
TFTP_VERBOSE: Print setting. 0=quiet, 1=progress(default),
2=verbose
TFTP_RETRY_COUNT: Retry count for ARP and TFTP (default=7)
TFTP_TIMEOUT: Overall timeout of operation in seconds
(default=7200)
TFTP_CHECKSUM: Perform checksum test on image, 0=no, 1=yes
(default=1)


Command line options:
-r: do not write flash, load to DRAM only and launch image
-u: upgrade the rommon, system will reboot once upgrade is complete
