Display the Contents of a Compact Flash Memory Card
To display the contents (directories and files) of a compact Flash memory card formatted with a Class B
Flash file system, use the dir flash: command or the show flash: command.
The following example shows output for displaying the contents of a compact Flash memory card using
the dir flash: command.
Router# dir flash:
Directory of flash:/
1 -rw- 14221136 <no date> c2691-i-mz.122-7.6.T1
2 -rw- 9169616 <no date> c2691-i-mz.122-7.4.T1

Delete Files from Compact Flash Memory
To delete a file from compact Flash memory, use the delete flash: command, followed by the
squeeze flash: 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: 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: command.
Note The dir command does not show deleted files; the show command shows all files, including any
deleted files if the squeeze command has not been entered.
The following example shows output for deleting a Cisco IOS file from compact Flash memory, and then
releasing the memory space originally occupied by the file:
Router# dir flash:
Directory of flash:/
1 -rw- 14221136 <no date> c2691-i-mz.122-7.6.T1
2 -rw- 9169616 <no date> c2691-i-mz.122-7.4.T1
