Execute the copy command as follows:
ProCurve(config)# copy flash flash primary
Erasing the Contents of Primary or Secondary Flash. This command
deletes the software image file from the specified flash location.
Before using this command in one flash image location (primary or second-
ary), ensure that you have a valid software file in the other flash image location
(secondary or primary). If the switch has only one flash image loaded (in either
primary or secondary flash) and you erase that image, then the switch does
not have a software image stored in flash. In this case, if you do not reboot or
power cycle the switch, you can recover by using xmodem or tftp to download
another software image.
