We have a switch with two IOS in the Boot path-list. One does not exists in flash. The one who does exists in flash is the SE10a. Which will the SW boot from? Is there a way to remove the other one?

It should just boot the one that is in flash, that is why you can have multiple IOS's listed. 

 

If you want to remove it then just do a "no system boot ...." etc. (assuming that is in the configuration) and then enter a new line with just the IOS you want to boot.

Thank you Jon. I have tried what you sad. Removed the one who is not in use, and then set the one I want to boot from. That worked very good.

 

Just out of interest, do you know why somethimes two can appear? 

You would normally see two or more in the list when someone has manually configured it that way eg. when you upgrade you often add them both just in case.
