A. Software Management always uses the bootflash card as the target Flash for the bootldr image. Software Management stores bootldr images on the bootflash card only, even though Cisco IOS Software allows the store of bootldr images on a Flash card. If you use other Flash cards for the store of bootldr images, problems can occur when you have stored other types of images, such as system software, Microcom, or Modem ISDN channel aggregation (MICA), in the same location.
