not really CCNA related but i just need some quick advice, and where else to get great advice than from TechExams!!
We have a 1841 router running an ipbase IOS. We need to upgrade it to a spservice IOS.
The ipbase IOS is 13.2 MB (13925828 bytes)
the spservice IOS is 18.4 MB (19 293 798 bytes)
here is the current show flash
SA#sh flash

3 4052480 Sep 28 2005 14:22:02 +10:00 sdm.tar
4 812032 Sep 28 2005 14:22:26 +10:00 es.tar
5 1007616 Sep 28 2005 14:22:50 +10:00 common.tar
6 1038 Sep 28 2005 14:23:12 +10:00 home.shtml
7 113152 Sep 28 2005 14:23:34 +10:00 home.tar
8 511939 Sep 28 2005 14:23:56 +10:00 128MB.sdf
11493376 bytes available (20439040 bytes used)
so i think the new IOS might just fit since it is only 5MB bigger than the current IOS and there is about 10MB of free space... i'm doing this remotely so i need to make sure i get it right the first time... so do you guys think it will fit if i erase the old IOS first?
