Thank you very much for everyones input on this. I was finally able to boot
into ROMMON mode and revert back to the old IOS, so that is good. This is a
Cisco Pro 2500 and I made a mistake thinking the IOS was the same. Good
thing I TFTP'd the older IOS.

Robert mentioned that I would need a cookie from Cisco to use the
traditional IOS, does anyone know how I would go about that? Or is it
possible that I can buy the IOS for the CPA 2500 somewhere 11.2 or better?

You may have to Xmodem the new IOS to your router. Search the CCO on how to
do this.

I tried to upgrade the IOS in a 2501 from 10.2 to 11.3 and I am getting the
following message.
