Cannot upgrade Cisco PIX 506E from version 6 to version 8 software

Hi Everyone,

I'm getting an error message on my 506E that is saying not enough flash space to install the new version 8 software. I did a clear flashfs command and then tried again but get the same error. Do you guys / gals know if the PIX 506E can be upgraded from version 6 to version 8? I am trying to install pix804-28.bin. Any help would be appreciated...

Thanks,

Craig

Hi,

From the Release Notes of that software

Note

The PIX 501, PIX 506/506E, and PIX 520 security appliances are not supported in software Version 8.0(4).

Thanks Jouni. We're thinking about replacing the PIX 506E with an ASA 5505 to solve this problem...
