[cobalt-users] security patch problems



Hi everyone,
 
I've got a problem with my RAQ installing the .pkg updates...
 
I tried to install the kernel update about a dozen times thru the UI, and it kept cutting out half way thru, so I found the cgi script that's used to install the pkg files thru the web, and decided to see what would happen if I ran it on the command line thru telnet.
 
What it basically did was destroy the user interface for installing packages (now its a blank page).
 
so does anyone have an idea:
 
1/ how to repair it??
 
or, if there is no way, then:
 
2/ is there any way to install the pkg files (esp. some needed security patches) without using the user interface?
 
thanks! I'm in a real bind here..

cheers,
