Begging for help once again . . . I have upgraded the flash in a 3640 from the 8 Mb chip to a 16 Mb chip. I did this by installing the second, 16 Mb chip into slot 1 of the motherboard, leaving the original 8 Mb in slot 1, for a total of 24 Mb of flash memory. I then installed 12.1, which was the reason I needed to upgrade the flash. 12.1 went on without a hitch, but when the router was reloaded, it would run for about 30 minutes and then go into rommon mode. It did this repeatedly, so I removed the 8 Mb chip, installed the 16 Mb chip into slot 0, and then used xmodem to transfer 12.1 through the console, a painstaking two hour task. Now the file is on flash, but at reload the file is unable to decompress, returning these errors:
Error: Uncompression of the image failed. invalid compressed data-format violated Error: zip decompress failed ***System received a software forced crash *** signal = 0x17, code = 0x7, context = 0x0 PC = 0x80008094, cause = 0x20, Status Reg = 0x3041f003 The crc checks are the same as displayed on the software centers web page. I have downloaded a new copy of the file and it still did not work. I put the original 8 Mb chip in slot 0 and removed the 16 Mb chip, reloaded a fresh 11.3 image, and received the same errors. What have I done??
