I had the same problem and stumbled upon this thread. I had luck recovering from the same state by following the steps in my post here:
My method did require a TFTP server, but theoretically the other methods to transfer files should work too. I think my biggest hurdle was figuring out the proper load address which I finally got by printing the environment before issuing other commands. That got me to the operational code utility and then doing a "Load Code Update Package" restored the switch to an operational state for me.
