I've seen this happen when the SP has the wrong config-register.

Once the RP is booted, login and run:

"remote command switch show boot"

If it's something other than 0x2102, or some other value that means
it'll go into ROMMON, just re-enter the config-register in the RP and
write the config -- the proper value will be propagated to the SP
(verify with the same command as above).

cheers,
Dale
