I think Guillermo knows all about updating ROM images !!!

Gerald has a qube3 running a RAQ550 OS I suggest you speak to him, you will have to upgrade to the new
ROM image (on bruces site also), but you are now an expert at that <smile>.
The qube is obviously not going to handle the same load as the RAQ550 will as there is a large difference
in the CPU 300 mhz and 1Ghz and also the 550 will handle 2 x 7200 rpm drives so disk access will be quicker.


Glad you got the Qube3 back up.

Paul.
