Dont have access to my rack now but they all have 14336K/2048K memory and 16
flash. I never had to change the config registers before to upgrade the
IOS, but its worth a shot.

May be your DRAM or flash are faulty....

My config registers are 0x2102 on all 7 of my routers with 16 flash and
14336K/2048K of memory. What am I doing wrong?
Tried 12.2 IP, Ip plus, and E plus
Can not load on
4 2501's
2 2503's
1 2520
Tried tftp with pumpkin, solarwinds, and another router. Even tried xmodem.

Roger,
I'm sure it's possible. My 2501 has been running 12.2 (17) E Plus for a
month with no problems.
I also use Pumpkin as TFTP server.

That sucks!!!
Not so good news 7 out of 11 of my rack routers are unupgradeable. :(
I am currently running 12.1(5)T
According to CCO the 12.2 documentation includes all features up to
12.1(5)T
so hopefully I will be able to do at least 95% of the features.

Its because of the platform. The 2501 is a shared memory router. The
2511
is not. One of the differences is that the 2511 has 2 meg of ram built
in
so when you install a 16 meg Dram chip, you have18 meg total, 2 meg of
iomem and 16 to use for other stuff. On the 2501, you only have 16 meg
total, so the router takes it 2 meg for iomem and your left with 14 meg.
There is no way you can load anything higher on the 2501 router that you
have. You basically have a hardware enforced limit of 14 meg for the
file
size it can store. Even then you'd be pushing it to get a 14 meg file
to
load. Sorry.
The good news is the only shared platforms in the 2500 series where
2501,
2502, 2503, 2504, 2520, 2521, 2522, and 2523. Just stay away from those
in
the future. You might try ios 12.1 enterprise plus ver 12.1.3b
c2500-js-l.121-3b.bin its only 14198428 bytes so you should be able to
load
that one. otherwise 12.1.2b should load, as it is only 14064264.
Good luck
Rob
