Have you tried the "service compress-config" configuration option? This 
will give you a little more headroom for your NVRAM as it will compress the 
configuration before saving it to nvram.

And if you say "no" to the erase flash question, what happens? If there is 
space on the flash memory, your configuration should be successfully 
written there.

If the flash memory is full, then erase some of the files on there to free 
up more space.
