as a side note to others following this thread: I successfully stacked a 3750E and G using c3750e-universalk9-mz.122.55.EY.bin and c3750-ipservicesk9-mz.122-55.SE1.bin respectively. The only other issue I've had to date is when I want to update the code. It's easy enough to copy from tftp to whichever flash directory represents the switch you need to store the image on. But the boot system command is giving me fits. You can't use "boot system switch all directory/filename" because of course you don't have the same image for each switch in the stack.. But what I'm learning is no format to "directory/filename" is respected when the stack is rebooted.
For example, I issued "boot system switch 3 flash3:c3750e-universalk9-mz.122.55.EY.bin"...and it still loaded the old IPBase that was in the flash directory. No error was given when the boot system command was issued, the switch just didn't load that image. I also used "flash3:\c3750e-universalk9-mz.122.55.EY.bin". I also used "flash3:/c3750e-universalk9-mz.122.55.EY.bin". I used just the file name by itself. In every case it accepts the boot command without complaint and stores it. When I type "show boot" it will echo out what I typed on the boot system command. But when it boots? Back to loading the old IPbase. I finally deleted IPBase thinking, it will either revert to the only IOS it has or, I'll hose the switch. And just like that it booted the image c3750e-universalk9-mz.122.55.EY.bin out of flash3.
Is there a specific format to the directory/filename portion of the boot system command?
