Hi
Sorry for re-posting but not sure why Cisco removed my previous post.
Im stuck in a situation where I cannot upgrade the firmware on my switch even though I've run the command to cleanup old files etc. I've followed the instructions to copy the bin file and then run the install command. However i get a message saying that im short on space, about 10mb to be exact. Not sure what else i can delete. Has anyone else come across this and managed to resolve it?
