2524 12.3 Crashing Loop



I posted this on GS but I am not sure that it was sent out. I
appreciate any of my fellow cisco friends help on this 2524 issue!
Below will be a cut and paste from my Post:

Guys/Ladies-



How do I fix this mess? I upgraded the ios to 12.3 (Must have been the
wrong one.) It was small enough to fit into flash and when it loaded it
had a memory allocation failure. Then it tries to load from the TFTP
server where I got the image from. Below:
Any help is appreciated!
