Hm. A slightly older version than what I've seen on most "new" RaQ 4... You 
might want to go to 2.3.38 -- what I run...  I have yet to get a 
definitive list of what changed in each version though.

Try my PKG files... www.cobaltfaqs.com in the Download section.  There are 
directions for non-PKG install using flashtool in Tim Hockin's directory 
on the Sun Cobalt FTP server (flashtool is there as well) 
(ftp://ftp-eng.cobalt.com/pub/users/thockin/2.4/) -- the "raw" ROM images 
are also in the Download section at www.cobaltfaqs.com.

Don't put 2.9.x on the box though -- that's meant for the RaQ 550 OS, which 
opens many other cans of worms you probably don't want to get into right 
now... :)

See more ROM info at Duncan Laurie's awesome site 
(http://cobalt.iceblink.org/rom/) too.
