I updated my ASA to version 9.1(1) tonight, that went well, but when I tried to update the ASDM image to version 7.1(1)-52 this happened;

Solution
1. Initially I thought I’d just need to clear some junk out of the flash, but a spring clean didn’t help either, turns out I need to free up some RAM by disabling some stuff.
Note: I could also have booted to ROMMON mode, and copied the files into flash. (But I was too lazy to dig out a console cable and walk to the dining room).

2. Then I could copy over the image successfully.
[box]
Petes-ASA(config)# copy tftp flash
Address or name of remote host []? 10.254.254.109
Source filename []? asdm-711-52.bin
Destination filename [disk0]? asdm-711-52.bin

3. Then turn everything back on again, and save the changes.
