ESXi 6.7 Boot Fails

Hi All, 

I have encountered error "esxi shutting down firmware services relocating modules and starting up the kernel" while booting up my ESXi. I have already tried the Shift+O and added parameter "ignoreHeadless=TRUE" but seems the option was not being applied. Can help if any other way to get my ESXi back on track....

If that fails, you might have corrupted boot media, and in those cases there's really no good recourse other than to install.

Appreciate your response mate, I have tried to reinstall as this my lab but during installation i still see this particular error message popped up again and although it proceeds with installation. After which i cannot ping/reach or launch ESXi from browser using IP of my ESXi.
