When you enter boot commands, pay attention to the use of the space bar, which influences the way

Switch(config)# boot system flash slot0: myfile
In the first case, the switch boots the file specified (
filename field blank and boots the first file on the Flash memory card.

Switch#pwd
bootflash
You can move between Flash memory media using the cd [bootflash | slot0 | slot1] command as
follows:
Switch#cd slot0:
Switch#pwd
slot0
Switch#
You can list the directory of any Flash memory media using the dir [bootflash | slot0 | slot1]
command as follows:
Switch#dir
-#- -length- -----date/time------ name
1
