Reinstalling the Single-Root Partition Release Using USB
To reinstall JUNOS Software from the boot loader using a USB storage device:
1.
Format a USB storage device in MS-DOS format.
2.
Copy the JUNOS Software image onto the USB storage device.
3.
Plug the USB storage device into the SRX Series device.
4.
Stop the device at the loader prompt and issue the following command:
user@host>
install file://
<image-path-on-usb>
For example:
loader>
install file:///junos-srxsme-9.6R1-domestic.tgz
This will format the internal media and install the JUNOS Software image on the
media with single-root partitioning.
Recovery of the Primary JUNOS Software Image with Dual-Root Partitioning Scheme

image, and boots up from the backup JUNOS Software image in the backup root
partition, a message is displayed on the console at the time of login indicating that
the device has booted from the backup JUNOS Software image:
