RE: [cobalt-developers] Raq4 ROM versions for Raq4 AND Raq550 OS

["Paul Aviles" <paul.aviles@xxxxxxxxx>]

Just make sure that before you do the upgrade you are at least on 2.6.x. 
kernel on the Raq4 OS or you could have timing issues with the flash script..

I actually think that is better to manually copy the flash tools and correct 
rom-paged file to the Raq4 , do a backup of the exiting rom, copy the backup 
rom file elsewhere, flash the new rom, copy the new flashed rom elsewere, 
reboot, and then use the 550 restore cd.. Note, after you flash with the new 
rom the Raq4 OS will not boot, this is normal....
