[cobalt-users] Installing .pkg updates on new RaQ4



I'll just purchased a RaQ4 and want to apply the lastest patches. The ones that are listed as installed are:

Relational Database Server and Client tools by InterBase. Release V6.0
Cobalt OS Release 6.0
RaQ4-All-Security Release 1.0.1-8532
RaQ4-All-Security Release 1.0.1-8762
RaQ4-All-Security Release 1.0.1-9353
RaQ4-All-System Release 1.0.1-8572
RaQ4-en-OSUpdateRelease 1.0
RaQ4LE-All-SystemRelease 0.0.1-9340

The Cobalt downloads page states that all the patches must be applied in chronological order, but some patches that are already installed are later than ones that are not.

(eg -8572.pkg from Jan 26,2001 is installed but -8747.pkg from Jan 25 is not)

So do I install the missing ones even though they are earlier than already installed patches, or just forget about them?

Cheers

Rich
