When I dir all, some 6504 shown up both disk0: and sup-bootdisk:, some shown just one of them only, even have samiliar module WS-SUP720-3B or VS-S720-10G, could help to explain the reason and what's different between disk0 and sup-bootdisk? and command "boot system flash" flash at here means disk0 or sup-bootdisk?
thanks,
Christina

"sup-bootdisk" or "sup-bootflash" are the same. They are the CF found INSIDE the line card which is the default location of the Supervisor's card IOS.
"disk0:" is the external CF slot which can also be used to store IOS and other files.

Actually I believe "sup-bootflash" is found on older sup720s and "sup-bootdisk" is found on newer sup720s or those that have been upgraded. Logically, as Leo noted, they are the same, their principal difference is how much storage space they can provide. If I also recall correctly, "sup_bootdisk" uses CF, while "sup-bootflash" does not.

Thanks Leo, 'boot system flash' means via sup-bootdisk?

Nope. "boot system flash" is generic. You need to specify the LOCATION of the flash. It could be "boot system flash sup-bootdisk:" or "boot system flash disk0:", etc.
