Since, 2500's are run from flash routers you need to boot up in bootrom
and then tftp copy the flash image.

Subject: Cannot Erase FLASH ???


I'm trying to upgrade the IOS in a couple of routers I've just purchased
& I get this:

System flash directory:
File  Length   Name/status
  1   3869420  igs-i-l.111-9
[3869484 bytes used, 4519124 available, 8388608 total]

Erase flash device? [confirm]
Are you sure? [yes/no]: y
%dev_open: System flash not writable

Any ideas- Copy TFTP FLASH gives the same- not writable error...

Thanks All !!!
Phil
