Re: 2500 Flash ?
Make sure you have a up-to-date bootstrap. I got the same problem when I have bootstrap version 4.14. Upgrade the bootstrap ROM should fix the problem.

RE: 2500 Flash ?
I have a similar problem, but it's the other way around (sorta)... I added a 4M flash chip to a 2500 that originally had only 8M. But after the upgrade, "show version" shows there are 16M, not 12M. Also, I can not copy an IOS version that's larger than 12M to the flash, so that shows the added chip is indeed only 4M. Is there something I need to do so it shows the correct size of the flash? ROM upgrade?

RE: 2500 Flash ?
No. If you only fill the first bank that's OK. If you fill both then they need to match. http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/access/acs_fix/cis2500/2500cfig/dualflsh/58674.htm From website above: "Step 5 Insert the new Flash memory SIMM by sliding the end with the metal fingers into the appropriate SIMM connector socket (CODE 0 or CODE 1) at approximately a 45-degree angle to the system card. If you are installing only one SIMM, install it in the socket labelled CODE0. Gently rock the SIMM back into place until the latch on either side snaps into place. Do not use excessive force because the connector could break.

RE: 2500 Flash ?
Apparently I can't read. Read his question wrong. You are right Zorro. Not the same as my problem. This is what I have done: 1) Upgraded ROM chips to the newest XB2 2) Tried the Flash in another 2500 series router and shows as 8MB 3) When I put it back into 2504 it shows it as 4MB. Are there any jumpers or something I'm missing? I have only installed one 8MB Flash. Leaving one empty. If I install 2 8MB flash it shows as 2 4MB flash SIMMs. Thank you.

Re: 2500 Flash ?
Do a Sho FLASH to see if it may be partitioned. If it says 4 Megs, then it's a 4 Meg stick. Usually the FLASH either works or not.

Re: 2500 Flash ?
I've never had 8 & 4 increments work in the 2500. I've always had (2) 4 Meg sticks or (1 or 2) 8 Meg sticks. Usually the boot ROM memory count is not effect by the ROM's, it's usually a situation of disappearing interfaces or "no usable interfaces" when your IOS supersedes the ROM code.

Re: 2500 Flash ?
Show flash shows one or two partitions? You may need to issue the partition command in config mode to make the router see the flash as one 8 Mb partition.

RE: 2500 Flash ?
I made a boo boo. I thought I had an 8MB Flash since that was what I had bought but I did some testing and it turned out to be 4MB. When I had an 8MB flash in slot0 and a 4MB in slot1 the show flash thinks it's 16MB. That's what confused me. And when I put the 4MB in slot0 it registered correctly. I guess next time I test flash I'm going to do it one at a time.

They use 72-pin SIMMs. The x36 represents parity memory. 72 pin SIMMs provide 32 data bite per cycle plus 4 parity bits which equals 36 bits. Non-parity SIMMs would be represented by x32.

RE: 2500 Flash - Read Only [7:57323]
If you are seeing read only @ the Sho Ver, then odds are you have run from FLASH IOS. The 2500 was initially a run from RAM device, but due to their limited memory of 16/16 have been written into more of a hybrid mode. What does this mean? Boot the router into boot mode (no rommon with this device). Once in boot mode, go to enable and erase flash. Once the FLASH has been erased, set an IP address and download the IOS of your choosing. Next, change the config-reg back to 0x2102 and reload the router. The new IOS code should appear and the FLASH should again appear as read only. All the best!

It is displaying as Read Only at the moment. I can load images with the software loader so I am assuming there is a way of changing the designation.
