AW: [cobalt-users] Getting debian on a Qube 2700WG

["Andreas Fuchs" <fox@xxxxxxxx>]

I think the developement of the Debian port for the mips based Cobalt's is
quite dead.

But there is a great solution to install a recent NetBSD on Raq2 and Qube2
and i think it was reported that it is also succesfully installed on the
2700WG.

Check the following mailing list for more information:

http://news.gw.com/netbsd.ports.cobalt/ or
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/port-cobalt/ (same list, different view)

good luck

Andreas

Betreff: [cobalt-users] Getting debian on a Qube 2700WG


Hi to all,

I just got a Qube 2700WG and now I want to use it as
- NAT - gateway (adsl using pppoe)
- VPN - server
- web + mail server
if possible it should run mysql and php / perl too.

I'd prefer running my Qube with debian, but the only articles I found about
installing debian on a Qube were about Qube 2, over a year old and all of
them were full of problems. - None of them worked for me.

I must admit that I'm not a real crack at installing linux via network on a
remote machine I cant put a CD in - to be honest I only tried it with a
normal i386 arch and did that with a step-by-step manual and needed two
runs for success.

What I need is some information (some links would be great :) ) on how
to set
up a server I can boot the Qube from, where to find a quite up-to-date
kernel
for doing that up to the point where I can install a debian base-system
on that
mashine.

Thanx for your mails in advance,

    Sebastian Gingter
