OK, since this IS cobalt developers......

There is an experimental release of kernel 2.4 available.  It is 100%
unsupported.  It is not finished, nor fully QA'ed.  It requires a rom
update.  You can install it if you like, but it is not a 100% error-proof
situation.  Have I scared you yet?  Good.

That said, it works for me.  There are some known issues, and I am working
on resolving them.  I have no idea when/if this will ever be a supported
upgrade for Qube3 or RaQ3/4.

gen_III is for Qube3, RaQ3, and RaQ4
gen_V is for RaQ XTR

PLEASE read the READMEs!!

Have fun
