20 MB flash on 1600R ?

An updated IOS image sent to replace one subject to the IOS Heap overflow vulnerability arrived at 16,855,588 bytes. TAC rep said the min requirements are 10MB dram, 16MB flash. Problem- the flash card is around 16,500,000 bytes, about 300k short of holding the image.

I have a 20 MB flash card, but it appears the 1600 won't see anything above 16 MB.

Is there a way to make the 1600 recognize the full 20 MB of the flash card? (In case it matters, router has 8MB base mem + 16 MB dimm).

TIA for any help.
