Description

It appears that the NVRAM parameter is ignored by the c2600 platform (both using the command line and with the hypervisor).

Example with 128 Kb of NVRAM on the command line:

dynamips -P 2600 -n 128 c2600-adventerprisek9-mz.124-25d.image

In IOS I always get 32K bytes of NVRAM, whatever value I give to the nvram parameter.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the c2600 configuration with dynamips -P 2600 -n 128 c2600-adventerprisek9-mz.124-25d.image, then trace how the c2600 platform handles the NVRAM parameter in both command-line and hypervisor setups. Done means the configured NVRAM size is reflected in IOS instead of always reporting 32K bytes.
