Have you make sure what are you use in 6704 module and 6708 module, is it CFC, DFC or DFC3CXL. With RSP 720 3CXL your gonna need DFC 3C XL, not only DFC.
Hope it help.

Hi, list!

We have CISCO 7604 router with the folowing:

   4  Centralized Forwarding Card WS-F6700-CFC        4.0    Ok


Recently we try to replace 6704 line card with 6708:

Mod Ports Card Type                              Model
--- ----- -------------------------------------- ------------------
  2    8   CEF720 8 port 10GE with DFC            WS-X6708-10GE

--- ------ ------------ ------------ -------
  2   1.4   12.2(18r)S1  12.2(33)SRD5 Ok


First of all, the folowing command was entered:
"no power enable mod 2"

10G interfaces goes down, status led on line card turns off.
After removing 6704 card and inserting 6708 router become unavail.
According to crashdump last evens was:

But after reboot we found extremly large rtt to this router 6-9 secons 
with typical 8 mS and near impossible ssh connection - too high CPU load.

In general, for example after IOS upgrade this router backs online 
withing 4 minutes. We wait 10 - no luck. We try to power cycle it.

After more than typical 4 mins. we start to receive syslog messages from
it (no console output, unfortunatelly). According to these messages,
different ports on two 48-port line cards (SFP and Copper) fails 
Loopback tests, and was err-disabled after they goes online.

For example:

*May 20 15:54:02.544 EEST: %DIAG-SP-3-MINOR: Module 4: Online 
Diagnostics detected a Minor Error. Please use 'show diagnostic result 
<target>' to see test results.

*May 20 15:54:04.743 EEST: %PM-SP-4-ERR_DISABLE: diagnostics error

And after another reboot

Finally, we return 6704 line card back and rotuer rebooted and
works fine as usual.

6708 line cad today was installed in another 6704 router with the
same RSP - all seems ok with it.

IOS on both routers c7600rsp72043-advipservicesk9-mz.122-33.SRD5.bin.

According to Cisco, 6708 line card can be installed in ANY slot of 7604
chassis, ISO SRD5 supports it as well. Similar 6708 line cars now
works in another router but 7606-S chassis.

Powe supply in problem router is 2700W. And now utilised only half from
awailable power and differens between 6704 and 6708 only 133W.

Does anybody have some glue what is wrong?

Is it possible that such behavior due to different ROMMON versions
on line cards in bundle or something wrong with chassis?

Thans in advance!
