Hi Leo,
I've added the details requested. I was successfully able to upgrade by turning on the 'boot flash-primary' option from 'configure terminal' and then booting to the bin file specified using the previous steps mentioned. Can you point me to the appropriate documentation for upgrading 3200s? I am confused as to why the documentation lists using what was previous mentioned and then talks about 'install add file filename [activate commit]'. I would like to ensure that I am following Cisco's recommendations going forward.
