I've been bugging the list members for ages to find a way to install a cobalt OS under VMware or on anotehr x86 box for testing with no luck yet :( -----Original Message----- From: cobalt-developers-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:cobalt-developers-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of a a Sent: 09 May 2001 15:56 To: cobalt-developers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [cobalt-developers] How to re-use a Cobalt RaQ as a regular Linux/BSD box? Does anyone knows how to re-build a Cobalt RaQ3 as a generic x86 system (Red Hat, FreeBSD, whatever)? I have a some RaQs that aren't being used, that I'd like to reuse for other stuff. Nothing against the Cobalt GUI, but I don't really need it taking up space, and don't need a GUI anyway. There's no CD-ROM/floppy so I guess I can put the drive in another system to install the OS and then put it back in. But I've heard there might be some proprietary stuff in the hardware that might prevent it from booting or running with a non-Cobalt OS? Has anyone done this successfully before? Maybe even documented it? :) Thanks in advance. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
