Thank you, Peter, for you wide answer, but my question is previous.
I explain. I want unpack image and pack again image, but with better parametres of compression. So I can receive image with size less, then I have. After this manipulations I can upload new compressed image on my 128Mb compact flash.
On images for 26xx series it is possible re-pack IOS, you can try yourself. I don't know about re-pack operations on images for 28xx/38xx/76xx series, may be new degree of protection or new methods of compression are used.
