Hello Cisco Community!
I need your expert advise!
I'm doing C3850 stack faulty switch (member) replacement
Could you please confirm if the steps below are correct:
1. Download the new image to flash: 
2. Check the md5 hash summ
3. Use the command “software install” to install the newly downloaded image in INSTALL Mode (3.x -> 16.x)
switch#software install fileflash:<name>bin new force

Note : new and force keywords are mandatory when upgrade from 3.x to 16.x code.
•If omitted,
  [1]: % Candidate package compatibility checks failed because the following package   dependencies were not satisfied. Operation aborted.
  [1]: % An internal error was encountered. Operation aborted.

Upgrade in INSTALL Mode (16.x -> 16.x)
switch#request paltform software packege install switch all file flash:<name>.bin

My question:
Should I delete the boot record in configuration before install a new IOS:

Thank you!
