Hello, please help me!

I have catalyst 6500. I needed to download a new IOS. I downloaded it on PC. I need to do that by console.

I tried to do that, as it described here.

After downloading the image, it tell "Invalid device specified" 

As i see there is no option -r (copy image to dram for launch) on catalyst 6500.

I don't have Flash memory.

I can't find how to choose directory to where copy the image. Please, help me,

The wrong file was uploaded.  

The file needed to be uploaded should be a BIN file, the IOS file for the supervisor card.  

My file is BIN file. s2t54-advipservicesk9-mz.SPA.152-1.SY3.bin.

What else can be the problem?

My file is BIN file. s2t54-advipservicesk9-mz.SPA.152-1.SY3.bin.

The pictures does not show the IOS BIN file was uploaded or found in the bootdisk:.

I think SUP having the USB port. you can use USB drive to recover the device.
