The cobalt raq4 uses x86 instructions.

What is the best way to install? Using the x86 instructions for

Hi,
Anyone succeeded in installing a Debian Woody distribution on a Cobalt Raq(4)?

Well I tried it. I installed the debootstrap on Mandrake 9.[0][1], dont

I mounted the partition of mandrake's root to /mnt/debinst. Maybe that was the

Ich habe einen Cobalt 1 von einem Freund bekommmen. Da dieser das passwort

Has anyone recently built a kernel for the i386 based Cobalt RAQ500?

Has it been done?
I see info on putting NetBSD onto a RaQ2 but not much on Debian Linux.

Some time ago people were asking about Debian on the Sun/Cobalt Qube.
I have just uploaded a new package to unstable - kernel-patch-2.4-cobalt,
this is a patch for kernels 2.4.16 and 2.4.18 for the Cobalt hardware.
The 2.4.16 patch is the same as that which ships with 2.4.x Qube's (kno
Our company purchased a Cobalt RaQ 3 some years ago. As time progressed
it became increasingly ill-suited for our purposes and we finally decided
to decommission it. Since the hardware is worth more to us as a server
than it would be on eBay, we decided to put another, modern, distribution

Cobalt is moving away from MIPS and to a K6-2 350 i believe? so it should
be just like any other PC just a small physical size.

Hi,
is out there anybody, who has got experience on using Cobalt Qube 2?
(Internet server appliance using linux, apache and smb preconfigured)
We are thinking here (an educational organization, about 40 workers; 12

Ok, gotta ask...
Now that you've had the NetWinder a while, what do you think of it as a
possible workstation?
