You need to shutdown all interfaces except for that which will be loading
the image over. You then need to change the config-register so that it comes
up in ROMMON (haven't had to do this in a while). You will then have both
flash modules in Read/Write so that you can create a single flash partition,
and format it as a 16mb partition. Then you can TFTP copy the image.
