If this is a REAL REAL RaQ550 ... you are just a little hosed,
it is easy to recover though.  Those two pkg's are for 3/4 => 550.

What you need to do is the following.

Turn the unit off.
Old 'S' while booting up.
Select 'Boot from ROM'

It should boot up in just a few minutes or so, like normal.  Then
you need to get the REAL RaQ550 Kernel PKG.

wget
http://ftp.cobalt.sun.com/pub/packages/raq550/all/RaQ550-All-Kernel-0.0.1-2.
4.19C13_V-1.pkg

You will then need to install it.
*** AS ROOT ***

/usr/sausalito/sbin/pkg_prepare.pl -i -R -f
RaQ550-All-Kernel-0.0.1-2.4.19C13_V-1.pkg

If it comes back successful, simply reboot your 550.  If not, 
post your errors here ..

Thanks,
Brian
