N1548 reformat and restore file system. now only U-boot
I have a problem with a dell n1548 switch service tag 749----
I have reformated and restored file system on the switch and now it will only boot to the U-Boot menu
i have the latest firmware N1500v6.6.0.24.A08
but cannot find any way to get it on to the switch
i have tried tftp and ymodem but cannot get either to work.
any help you could give would be amazing
here is what the switch shows booting.

Hello,
I've seen solutions for this run from replacing a switch to flashing firmware. What troubleshooting steps have you tried already? Was there any sort of notable event immediately prior to seeing this message?

Hi Dylan.
Unfortunately, no progress.
The switch is at a "u-boot" prompt, without the options menu.

I got your message and checked the tag. The single best recommendation I can make to you is to contact support. The switch has a valid warranty on it, so you'll be able to get assistance. I know that I've seen switches replaced for behavior similar to this, but I'm not sure if they may have a faster resolution available.
