First, let me tell you how I wiped it so you don't make the same mistake.

I installed the OS upgrade via command line.
That went fine but it didn't update the "Installed Software" list.
I found this on Cobalt's site regarding uninstalling packages:

The "Install Software" page in the administrative web interface 
is not updated until you run the file
      "/usr/admserv/cgi-bin/.cobalt/install/install.cgi".

So I did that... Big mistake...
It asked for info that I didn't know the anwsers to...

My "Install Software " page was now there but empty... As in 0 bytes...

I ended up getting it back by running that cgi through my browser....

http://my.server.com:81/cgi-bin/.cobalt/install/install.cgi

And that was after about an hour and a half of trying other methods...
Like copying the template for that page to where the missing page should be....
