For additional help, refer to the delete command section of the Cisco Security Appliance Command Reference, Version 7.0.
You can delete these files if you do not wish to downgrade back to PIX Firewall 6.3. This includes the PIX 6.3 configuration:
6 -rw- 1780 12:15:54 Nov 29 2004 downgrade.cfg
9 -rw- 1941560 12:16:42 Nov 29 2004 image_old.bin
You can also delete your extra copy of the image of the pix701.bin file since the PIX 7.0 image is renamed as image.bin by default.
You could also delete the old_running.cfg file if you do not need it to make room for the Adaptive Security Device Manager (ASDM) image file.
