Back in May when I installed a Cobalt kernel update package, it put
my Raq3 in a continual reboot. 4webspace booted of the ROM kernel.
I don?t know how they did it, but my web server and everything ran great!
It?s an older kernel, but more than enough to keep things running until
you fix it.
Does anyone know how to boot off of the ROM kernel?
