Well Prem, it may be that you misconfigured the boot system command

When it looks like this: boot system flash c800-y6-mw.121-3.XG5

Your flash must contain the image with exactly that name, i.e.

sh flash

Directory of flash:/

If these names do not match, the router will not boot. Otherwise you may have loaded an incompatible image. More info is needed to check this.

You are using an IOS image which is for 801 routers.

The correct image for 805 routers is c805-osy6-mw.120-7.T2.bin

Please upgrade the image to the one specified above

hi

earlier the router was with the IOS c800-sy6-mw.120-7-XV.bin,one of my colleague squeezed the flash first and deleted the ios image.then he copied the new image (c805-y6-mw.121-2.T.bin) and reloaded with giving some boot commands in the global mode.

now the thing is i entered into the boot mode and forced the router to boot up using tftp with this image c805-y6-mw.121-2.T.bin.

after it get booted up i m trying to copy the image to flash which is not happening giving not enough space.

i dont want to use tftp for this since its going to be shifted to some other place and i cant ask the concerned persons over ther to keep allot a pc as tftp server.

after it gets booted up when i give show flash it gives the older version of ios image which was there eariler.

i m issuing both erase and squeeze(delete+squeeze) then trying to copy the new file but it gives the same not enough space error.

reloaded lot many times and followed the same excericse but nothing happened..

is ther any way out to solve this???

Just give copy from tftp to flash, when it prompts for erase flash, give Yes.

Then also if it shows not enough memory, then it might be the problem with the flash. The image which you are using is just 2.5 MB and 4MB flash should hold the image. Might be the flash card has gone bad or would have developed bad sectors.

Try using a different flash card and load the image.
