[afnog] Error on Cisco 1700

[John H Mwangi]

Hi Guys,

Am working on upgrading the flash on a cisco 1700. The router previously
came with 4 mb flash. I've slotted in a 16mb flash. I am able to copy a new
IOS (8mb), from ROMMON mode, but when I reset after completion of the flash
programming I get the following error :-

System Bootstrap, Version 12.0(3)T, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)
Copyright (c) 1999 by cisco Systems, Inc.
C1700 platform with 16384 Kbytes of main memory

program load complete, entry point: 0x80008000, size: 0x83edcc

Error : memory requirements exceed available memory
Memory required     : 0x016875A4

Has anyone encountered such a problem, and how did you manage to sort it
out. All help will be appreciated.


The full error output is as follows:-

File reception completed.
