well that was fast.. I messed up the start of this question and posted without description. And while I was doing that you already answered.

Anyway this was the description i was writing:

I have an old X450 switch that I am looking into mainly for my own educational purposes. I keep ketting these error messages when in booting in console:
/exos/bin/exsh: /lib/libc.so.6: version 'GLIBC_2.3.4' not found (required by /exos/lib/libds.so.0)
/exos/bin/exsh: /lib/libc.so.6: version 'GLIBC_2.3.4' not found (required by /exos/lib/libepm.so.0)
/exos/bin/exsh: /lib/libc.so.6: version 'GLIBC_2.3' not found (required by /exos/lib/libcommon.so.0)
/exos/bin/exsh: /lib/libc.so.6: version 'GLIBC_2.3.4' not found (required by /exos/lib/libcommon.so.0)
/exos/bin/exsh: /lib/libc.so.6: version 'GLIBC_2.3' not found (required by /exos/lib/libdm.so.0)
/exos/bin/exsh: /lib/libc.so.6: version 'GLIBC_2.3.4' not found (required by /exos/lib/libdm.so.0)

I found this article: https://gtacknowledge.extremenetworks.com/articles/Solution/Summit-X450e-24p-error-exos-bin-systemin...

And of course those steps did not work. I can get to BootRom interface but there is not much to do is it? I´ve found some forum post that said something about "diagnostic bootrom" or something like that. I just can´t find it now.

As a last resort I was thinking about installing a new image to the switch via TFTP.

As i looked into installing new image for my switch I realised that esupport site does not work with my extreme account. I thought I could go and download new image but apparently that is not the case. How can I get new image for my switch (and how much will it cost)?
I don´t have any warranty or support licenses I just need the image to get this switch going..

Sammy,

Thanks for the clarification. Since this is a unit that you plan to use for personal training/hands-on, you can attempt the steps described in the following GTAC Knowledgebase Article to Download and Install a New Image from the BootROM menu:

Yes, thank you. That indeed describes the steps how I will doenload and install new image when I actually have one. But the remainin question is "where can I get a new image (and how much will it cost)?"
I wouldn´t need the latest and fanciest just a working one.
This switch is end-of-sale already but support ends in late 2018. So this would mean there has to be new image for this switch. I´m calling support today but I am afraid they will require me to subscribe some support plan and the fees will be out of my price range.

Sammy, If you find this is out of your price range or that you can't get software, you might be interested in using Virtual EXOS.
How to obtain a copy of the Virtual EXOS software

Does the switch boot far enough to tell you what version it "thinks" is installed?
Your user account doesn't appear to be associated with a company account, so there are no assets to show support on or to allow you to download with.

Got it all covered and switch is now running just fine. Thank you all for your response!
