Sorry, disregard the previous message, hit send by accident before it was completed.

Trying to load 12.4(13b) on a --

cisco 7206VXR (NPE400) processor (revision A) with 491520K/32768K bytes of 
memory.

I have the following boot sequence defined --

boot-start-marker
boot system disk1:c7200-is-mz.124-13b.bin
boot system slot0:c7200-is-mz.123-22.bin
boot-end-marker


Both images are there.

    1  -rw-    26027532  Mar 29 2012 10:32:38 +00:00  c7200-is-mz.124-13b.bin

40759296 bytes total (14729216 bytes free)

    1  -rw-    17839240   Apr 6 2011 14:12:43 +00:00  c7200-is-mz.123-22.bin

20578304 bytes total (2738936 bytes free)

Yet after bootup the router is still running the 12.3(22) version.

I assume the problem is the amount of ram, since the feature navigator shows that the router requires 48meg for 12.4(13b), and show ver shows it only has 32 meg (is that correct)? But the feature navigator also shows that 12.3(22) requires 48meg, and that loads fine.

So I'm looking for a sanity check as to whether or not I am misreading the feature navigator or the router info, and whether or not something other than the amount of ram is likely to be the problem.
