[cobalt-users] Qube 3/OS 6.4 installation questions



 I am in the the process of upgrading the software on my
Qube3 to OS 6.4. I have tried the following:
1.) Installing directly from BlueLinq
2.) Manual Install after downloading to my PC from
ftp.cobalt.sun
3.) Command line installation, using the instructions in the
knowledge base.

 After the install scripts run, the Qube appears to boot
into single user mode. The LCD reads "Cobalt OS 6.4 .pkg".
The drive is checked, various processes are started, and the
machine reboots to multi-user mode. When I go back to
BlueLinq, it still reports OS 6.2 loaded! If have tried the
install multiple times, and have downloaded the .pkg 4
times, using both ftp and http. I got started thinking that
maybe BlueLinq is broken and went ahead and tried to install
the System Update 1.0. It downloads and then bombs with a
message that I must have OS 6.4 loaded. Anybody know how to
check the OS Version from the command line? Any ideas on
what is going wrong? Thanks in advance for the help.
