Hi all,
I got some problem today, I tried to upgrade IOS from SXI2a to SXI9 in cat 6506 VSS. But the problem is that switch always boot with old IOS. I put the new IOS in sup-bootdisk and slave sup-bootdisk, bootvar is ok with new IOS:

Maybe the SXI9 image is corrupt.
Check the bootstring.
Check the location of the SXI9.

Hi thanks for reply,
boot-start-marker
boot system flash sup-bootdisk:s72033-ipbase-mz.122-33.SXI9.bin
boot-end-marker
I verified checksum MD5 of the IOS in 6500 after copy and it's the same of the MD5 Cisco web page.
Regards.

Thanks for the output.
May I ask if you can furnish the output to the following commands:
1. dir sup-bootdisk:
2. dir slavesup-bootdisk:
