I believe you require two flash sticks both the same type and size to do
that, then you will have no more issues.

If you have 2 sticks in the flash, you may have the first stick with 8MB
and the second stick with 4MB. I once installed a second flash stick
with 4MB so I could download images up to 12MB to the router. If I did a
show flash it would show me 16MB although I had only 12MB. To make sure,
remove the first stick and move the second stick to the first position
(the motherboard is labelled 0 and 1, 0 being the first). HTH, Phil.

Try using "ftp" instead of tftp to download the image. Check the CCO for
the commands to allow that. (or simply get a tftp trasnfer without any
errors, remember tftp is udp).

Hope this helps,
Ernesto.

All,
I keep trying to download IOS 12.1.6 to a 2500's flash via tftp. It has
16F/16D (sh version states "16384K.....of flash). When it finishes and I
do a "show flash", the correct file shows up but with "invalid
checksum". Below is the output from "sh flash":

System flash directory:
File Length Name/status
1 15262708 c2500-js56i-l.121-6.bin [invalid checksum]
[15262772 bytes used, 1514444 available, 16777216 total]
16384K bytes of processor board System flash (Read/Write)

I'm not sure what to make of it. The amount used is less than 16Mb but
the total is more. I've searched CCO and can't find anything. If anyone
has an explanation, please help. Thanks
