Interesting, cuz Cisco's www page says:
Cisco routers that use a "run-from-Flash" architecture include the Cisco
1601-Cisco 1604 and the Cisco 2500 series. [snip] In the run-from-Flash
architecture, the IOS cannot be compressed.

Please
respond to
"Desimone,

it's called mzmaker - its standard cisco compressed format its only for
2500
routers (most other routers' images are already compressed.) But you have
to have enough ram to decompress the image...

Hi,
As I remeber somebody say the router could run a compressed IOS image
for save the flash space, it can make a 10 or 12 MB image in a 8 MB
flash, and the router will decompress at boot-up automatically , but it
need take some longer time to boot the router up. Now problem is anyone
known that IOS image compressed format , does zip or gzip or just UNIX
compress -- suffix as .Z ?
Best Regards
Tasuka
