You (theoretically) need a support login to get updates of IOS. Once you 
are logged in the web pages change their appearance, then go to 
http://www.cisco.com/kobayashi/sw-center/sw-ios.shtml

And you need to know how much RAM you have in your 2500, this is the gating 
factor for what release/features you are able to run. I pretty much settled 
for a very early reelase as my 2514 has only 4MB (I really only need to do 
static routes), I can't run any of the 12.1/12.2 train images, they are 
hungry for much more memory even with the limited IP feature set.
