Hello Guys, I am trying to flash a 3164 from 7.0(3)I7(5a) to nxos.7.0.3.I4.8.bin But i keep getting the below error:
I do have space so i do not think it's a space issue.
Any ideas?
Thank you.

well - this is usually _really_ simple, I had this just seconds ago..
Szenario
* given a non-XL Nexus 31..-Switch
Process
(1) you copy using a protocol of your choice (SCP if you like it) the new "nxos"-image
* of course you chose the "compact"-image.
(2) you try "show install ..." and it fails with "SRG file missing", "SRG extraction failed", "SRG file not present/some modules are not supported in target image"
(3) you find, that the "bootflash:" is full
(4) you clean up
(5) "show install nxos" still fails.
Reason:
* the "copy"-process (task #1) aborted since there was not enough space
* an incomplete part of the nxos-file has been transferred
* so there really is no SRG-info available in this file
Solution:
* delete the broken nxos-file
* copy the nxos-file agein
should work.
