File and Directory Operations Appendix B Formatting the Compact Flash Memory Cards Delete Files from Compact Flash Memory To delete a file from compact Flash memory, enter the delete {flash: | slot0:} command, followed by the squeeze {flash: | slot0:} command. When a file is deleted in the Class B Flash file system, the memory space occupied by the deleted file is not released until you enter the squeeze {flash: | slot0:} command. Although the memory space once occupied by the deleted file remains, the deleted file cannot be recovered. To release the memory space occupied by a deleted file, enter the squeeze {flash: | slot0:} command. Note The dir {flash: | slot0:} command does not show deleted files; the show {flash: | slot0:} command shows all files, including any deleted files if the squeeze {flash: | slot0:} command has not been entered. The following example shows output for deleting a Cisco IOS file from an external compact Flash memory card, and then releasing the memory space originally occupied by the file: Router# dir slot0: Directory of slot0:/ 1 -rw2 -rw- 6458208 6458208 c3725-i-mz.tmp c3725-i-mz 16056320 bytes total (3139776 bytes free) Router# delete slot0:c3725-i-mz.tmp Delete filename [c3725-i-mz.tmp]?
