Installing and Removing a Flash Memory Card
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 4-5 and the following procedure to install a flash memory card.
Step 1 Remove the flash memory slot cover by loosening its captive screw (illustration
is shown without the cover for clarity).
Step 2 Hold the flash memory card with the connector end of the card toward the slot and
the label facing right (see Figure 4-5a).
