2511 Flash Memory Question
Greetings All I have a 2511 with 4 MB of flash in it. I need to upgrade the IOS needs 7MB. I tried canabalizing another 2511 I had and adding it's 4MB to the 1st routers 4MB making what I believed to be 8MB. But when I tried to tftp the new image over I still got an error saying not enough memory, and yes I had opted to erase the flash first. When I went and looked at the flash the router saw it as two 4MB cards instead of 1 8MB. What do I need to do to get the flash blended together to act as 1 8MB?

Re: 2511 Flash Memory Question
Yeah you can't place an IOS on two flash cards. You need an 8 Duck - Original Message - From: Tom Pruneau [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 14, 1980 6:07 PM Subject: 2511 Flash Memory Question Greetings All I have a 2511 with 4 MB of flash in it.

There is an IOS compression utility you can try to compress the image. It's called Mzmaker.

RE: 2511 Flash Memory Question
Hi Tom, In your config you will see a line io mem 2 4 4 or something similar (awhile since i have done this ) simply re-enter this line with a no in front of it. Which means you have 2 4 meg patitions of flash memory. To create one partition of 8 enter. no io mem 2 4 4 Regards, Jason Baker Network Engineer -Original Message- From: Tom Pruneau [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, January 15, 1980 12:08 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: 2511 Flash Memory Question Greetings All I have a 2511 with 4 MB of flash in it.

RE: 2511 Flash Memory Question
Tom, Try these steps, I think Boot the router in boot mode. Enable and enter configuration mode Issue "no partition flash" (or "no flash partition" - I think that it was the first one). Write the config change to memory. Reload the router (still in boot mode). Once this has been done I think that you will see a single flash partition.
