Note
Step 4 Use the following series of commands to designate the file new.image (in the Flash memory card in
slot 0) as the default boot image:
Router# config terminal
Router(config)# no boot system
Router(config)# boot system flash slot0:new.image
Router(config)# ^z
Router# copy running-config startup-config
Router# reload
When the system reloads, it will boot the new.image file from the Flash memory card.
This completes the procedure for copying a bootable image onto a Flash memory card.

Copying Bootable Images between Flash Memory Cards

As future releases of Cisco IOS images become available, you will receive these images as a file booted
from a network server, a file on floppy disk, or a file on a Flash memory card.
The following scenario describes how to use a newly released image on a Flash memory card in a system
that has an older image on a Flash memory card in slot 0 and a default boot image in the onboard Flash
SIMM.
For this scenario, the filenames are as follows:
•
•
•
You will copy the new image from the new Flash memory card onto the Flash memory card that contains
the old image.
OL-5102-02
In the preceding example, the exclamation points (!!!) appear as the file is downloaded, and the
"C" characters signify calculation of the checksum, which is a verification that the file has been
correctly downloaded to the Flash memory card.
The new image on the new Flash memory card is new.image.
The old image on the Flash memory card in slot 0 is old.image.
The bootable image in onboard Flash memory is boot.image.
