it depends on the version of the Cobalt's. RaQ2 and before had mips
processors. I don't think that freebsd will run on them.

RaQ3 and later have "normal" i386 architecture so it should work.

Please be aware that cobalt has some strange booting recommendations. A
fellow installed netbsd on a raq2 and had to format the root Partition
with ext2 filesystem and so on.

With my experience regarding the hardware failures of cobalt's, I
wouldn't give very much money for them.
