To copy a bootable Cisco IOS software image between Flash memory cards,
follow these steps:
Step 1 Boot the router. For this example, the file named image.boot is the default boot
image.
Step 2 Enter the enable command to enter privileged EXEC mode as follows:
Router> enable
Password: <password>
Router#
Step 3 Insert the new Flash memory card in slot 1.
Step 4 Enter the following command to copy the file image.new in slot 1 to the Flash
memory card in PCMCIA slot
0.
Note Take this step only if sufficient space is available on the Flash memory
card in slot
0 to hold both the new image and the old image already
resident on the Flash memory card.
Router# copy slot1:image.new slot0:image.new
Entering this command in the following form will achieve the same result:
Router# copy slot1:image.new slot0:
Step 5 Enter the following commands to designate the file named image.new in the Flash
memory card in slot 0 as the new default system image for boot purposes:
Router# configure terminal
Router(config)# no boot system
Router(config)# boot system flash slot0:image.new
Ctrl-Z
Router# copy running-config startup-config
Router# reload
When the system reloads, the file image.new is booted from the Flash memory
card in slot
0.
