RE: Loading compressed image on 2500?

You won't be able to compress this image and then load it. It will need
enough ram to uncompress the image and then run it. Unfortunately you have a
max of 16MB of ram, so the uncompressed image will take all the ram. The
image size being larger then flash seems odd, I would guess that something
is wrong with the image if it doesn't fit in the max flash.
