I am concerned about my being able to get an image back on the flash as
well, but someone had to get the original one on the flash somehow. This is
an older 2500. I didn't know if maybe the bootrom needs to be (or can be)
upgraded easily. Also didn't know if the type of flash in this guy is not
fully supported by Cisco. Maybe I need to crack this router open and test
the copy process with a different flash module installed?
Earlier, I forgot to include what I get when I try to erase flash. Here
goes:
Router(boot)#sh flash
8192K bytes of Flash address space sized on CPU board.
Flash: invalid chip id 0x9105
unable to configure flash for erase or write.
Flash chips recognized by system :
Code Chip-Sz Cmd-grp Chip-name
89B4 0x20000 1 INTEL 28F010
89BD 0x40000 1 INTEL 28F020
01A7 0x20000 1 AMD 28F010
012A 0x40000 1 AMD 28F020
012A 0x40000 1 AMD 28F020
1CD0 0x40000 1 M5M 28F101P
