Hi Group,

I have a problem with boot on M7i after upgrade JunOS:
 request system software validate /var/tmp/jinstall-
8.1R3.3-export-signed.tgz
 request system software add /var/tmp/jinstall-8.1R3.3-export-signed.tgzreboot

JunOS validation was OK, and after the reboot it didn't come up. Console
messages show cyclic reboot by watchdog timeout.
Only this console port connection is available. How to recover this under
such a constraints?
