Make sure you are following the procdure on the link below step-by-step. Make sure you are doing the xmodem command on the router before you send the file in Hyperterminal:

Hopefully you have an Rxboot image in the 2500. Lets try this.

>o/r 0x2101

>reset

When it reboots it should boot to Rxboot mode,

Router(boot)>

Router(boot)>enable

Router(boot)#

Rest of the steps to copy an image via TFTP are mentioned in this link.
