hidden/system flash files?

[curtmcgirt]

3750. show flash says 57671680 bytes total. if i add the sizes of the contents shown in the results of show flash, i get 25563881 bytes. but show flash also says i only have 3059200 bytes free. so that's 57MB total minus 25.5MB used equals 3MB free. there are two directories listed, and their total contents is 146KB. 

so how do i see what is taking up the missing 29MB?

can you post dir flash output to look ?

Post the complete output to the following command: 

dir

[curtmcgirt]

dir and show flash both show the same thing

DRWX - means they are folders, so you need to dir flash:/dc_profile_dir and c3750e-universalk9-mz.15201.E

that will give you exactly used space.

make sense ?

thank you. i had noticed dc_profile_dir was a directory because of the name, but did not notice "c3750e-universalk9-mz.152-1.E" was missing the ".bin" at the end of the name. i

i got rid of it with 

del /recursive /force flash:/c3750e-universalk9-mz.152-1.E
