using a Cross-Link cable connected to an secondary PC with your RaQ3. Boot
up the
CD in the secondary PC and follow the instructions.
1. Important: not all Network Adapters are supported by the OS-CD-Linux ...
I don't got
the full list ... but a 3Com EtherLink XL (3C900B) PCI will work also unless
the list only tell
from the 3C905B (tested a week ago to maintain a RaQ4!) ...
2. Important: you will lost ALL your data ... maybe mount the harddisk in
the other PC
before, to do a backup if you couldn't manage it from the admin interface !
