Guys,
     I have been studying now for a few months and am starting to get to the
more advance commands.
     My lab consists of 2 x CAT 3550's, 2 x 4500, 9 x 2500, a 3620 and 2611.

        What I was wondering is what is the best IOS to support as many
features as possible such as IPV6 (pref with OSPF support if avail) and
Prefix Lists etc for the 2500.

        This also goes for the 3500's, 2611 and 3620 I now have an image
with support IPV6 on the 4500's.

Jeff

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.
