memory allocation error on PIX firewall

I'm getting an error whenever I try to upload a copy of ASDM to my PIX firewall.

%Error writing flash:/asdm-615.bin (Cannot allocate memory)


Is it just out of space on the flash? or is there something else going on?



show flash
Directory of flash:/

Good thinking, I'll try to re-upload the OS image when I get a chance.

Luckily its not in production so if it blows up its not the end of the world.
I figured it wasn't yet since you are going down from 8 to 6.  Blow it away there is always the recovery options to get something back on it if need be.
