No, automatic updates...

Not sure, you can do it on a RaQ3 or RaQ4 running non-RAID software. I
would try a spare disk you might have laying around, see if RAID0 doesn't
try to use it. If not, then you should be able to install it and mount it
to remove files.

Best bet is to install it on a non-RAID system, tar up and ftp the
tarballs someplace safe.
