Hi @montie_dj 

 

Welcome to Community!

 

Could you please login console port and input command 'reset' under m4300r2> mode? Then check if switch can bootup success or not.

 

If still not work, please input command 'setenv bootfile = image1', then do above operation again.

 

 

Hope it helps!

 

Regards,

EricZ
