RaQ550-13-040317.iso is an iso with patches no rom tools for a REAL
RaQ550.
I haven't had much luck getting the patches to install from the cd on
RaQ3/4/Qube3's. I have been using a CD with no patches. then have a
tarball with all the patches and a script, which I use to install from the
command line.

Procedure is like this.
 restore with RaQ550-np CD, no patches.
   http://cdr.raq4less.com/RaQware-RaQ550-np-040210.iso
 go through the GUI setup wizard.
 ssh as admin into the server
 su -
 <password>
 mkdir /home/patches
 cd home/patches
 wget http://cdr.raq4less.com/RaQware-RaQ34-550-pkgs-040210.tar
 tar -xf RaQware-RaQ34-550-pkgs-040210.tar *
 ./update-550.csh

* RaQware-RaQ34-550-pkgs-040210.tar will be replaced sometime tonight.
  It has the 16622 patch in it. and is missing the last patch
  You can still use it, but delete 16622 before executing update-550.csh
