[cobalt-users] Raq3i OS-Restore Pause...

[Spacey <space_biscuit@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I downloaded a restore iso for the Raq3/Raq3i today from the sun/cobalt site, burned it, and tried
it on my machine, but the restore process doesn't seem to be working.  The cd boots in my
workstation machine alright, likes the NIC card, and is all ready to work.  

The problem comes when I fire up the blue-box and select "Boot from net".  At first all seems to
be good and it seems to be accessing some info off the CD-drive in my workstation, but then after
a while it starts to shut down some services and say it's going to reboot (on the LCD).  When it
does reboot, it says "Loading Kernel" on the LCD panel, but this lasts for seemingingly forever...
I keep loosing the patience to see if it's going to come out of this phase, as it seems like no
network traffic or hard-drive activity is occuring.  

How long should this pause normally occur once it reboots the first time...?  Should this take
more than an hour?   Any diagnostics I can run to see what's occuring and if there's a halt going
on?

Thanks Much Out There!

Theo
