Hi, You do not have to delete the old IOS. Just copy the new one from TFTP to Flash and it will prompt you if you want to delete the old one.

Flash on a 2500! [7:24564] I'm trying to upgrade the IOS on a 2500 router. When I attempt to delete the current IOS image, or erase the flash altogether, it tells me it's in read-only mode. Fine. I've scoured Cisco's website trying to find a way to put the flash into read/write mode so I can do this IOS update, but to no avail. I did fine one page talking about partitioning the flash, but couldn't seem to use that to my advantage. My next thing is to boot to rommon and try to wipe the flash there (then use the console to transfer the 10MB IOS image at a blazing 9600 baud..... goodie =) Any thoughts or information is appreciated.
