The PCMCIA flash card slots are designated as slot 0 (left) and slot 1 (right). Both flash memory card slots can be used at the same time.

If there are dual GRPs, the slots in the primary GRP are designated slot 0 and slot 1. The slots in the secondary GRP are designated sec-slot 0 and sec-slot 1.

Note The following procedures can be used for a flash memory card in either slot position.

Refer to Figure 4-5and the following procedure to install a flash memory card.
