Solved!
Go to SolutionS4048 not booting correctly.
I upgraded a DELL 4048-S EMC switch NOS and think I accidently rebooted into the ONIE install mode. Now switch doesn't boot and seems stuck in a 'fetching' loop. Ideas or suggestions?

If I change the boot order, which do I pick to boot? My concern is that after I upgraded the Network OS for my DELL S4048-on switch, to 9.14 or so, I thought i was supposed to run an 'reboot onie install' or related command. Later, I read that there was a warning somewhere saying that "previous NOS are lost when boot into ONIE install mode" so, to clarify, I need to only reinstall the Network OS or do I need to reinstall ONIE also? Sorry, I am very new to DELL switches and used to Cisco ones. Thanks
one quick follow up. The ONIE syntax for installing a network OS doesn't seem to work for me. I'm using vsftp. Do I not specify a username?
onie-nos-install ftp://my_name@A.B.C.D/home/my_name/ftp/FTOS-SK......
Info: Fetching ftp://my_name@A.B.C.D/home/my_name/ftp/FTOS-SK-9.14.2.11.bin ...
Connecting to A.B.C.D (A.B.C.D:21)
wget: ftp login: Login incorrect.Thoughts?
Thanks.

Hello
Where the file is located?
Here the video guide about how to install OS.
Can you try with TFTP?

Hello,
you have only to reinstall Network OS in this case.
Thanks
