So I'm looking to update my 4500M.
The 'sh ver' says:

cisco 4500 (R4K) processor (revision B) with 32768K/16384K bytes of memory.
128K bytes of non-volatile configuration memory.
4096K bytes of processor board System flash (Read/Write)
4096K bytes of processor board Boot flash (Read/Write)

The IOS I'm looking to download says
Min. Memory(MB)        32
Min. Flash                      8
Image                            c4500-i-mz.122-40a.bin

So waht is the 32/16meg
does the two 4megs = 8?

Thanks,
   Scott<-

Most likely 4.

Some of the older high end routers (and yes the 4500M
was highish end) had a seperate "boot helper" image and
operational image.

The boot flash is quite likely for the boot helper.

the 32/16 is  Total-RAM/io-ram, or is the total 48?
Whatever, its the same for brand new kit so just look it up.
