I'm trying to upgrade the code on a fresh, out of the box Cisco ASA 5510. However, whenever I transfer the code via TFTP I get the following message –
Writing file disk0:asa847-k8.bin...
%Error writing disk0:asa847-k8.bin (I/O error)
When I run the dir command –

The No space information available is kind of concerning. Is it possible the disk is bad? Anyone experience this issue before? Any tips or troubleshooting steps to get around this?
