Fortigate 100d device is not booting

Hii , 


Actually I have formatted the fortigate 100d firewall. And now I am unable to boot the device or upgrade the 
Firmware. It says boot failed.
I have configured the tftp parameters. And connected to mgmt port of fortigate to my laptop (tftp server) as
Fortigate promting to connect for mgmt port to initiate the firmware transfer. 
Downloaded the new firmware and configured all the details in tftp server. 
And at finally it show the Mac address and shows switch link not present.

Kindly guide step by step how to load the firmware. As well I am not getting option of upgrade from tftp server directly.
