RE: [cobalt-users] RaQ550 Kernel Update hangs

["Manny Tau" <mtau@xxxxxxx>]

Just got done installing on my 550:
RaQ550-All-Kernel-0.0.1-2.4.19C7_V-1-3.pkg

without any problems. I noticed that in BlueLinQ that the title of the
package didn't have the -3 on the end, but the stated location pointed to
the above file.

I haven't installed the new RaQ550-All-Security-0.0.2-15578 "glibc" security
update that just showed up in BLQ ... typically I wait a few days to see if
anyone posts probs here, like the one for the kernel above, then hope it was
idiosyncratic for that person.

FYI. Manny

Whoa! this may be trouble for people who are running 550 OS on RaQ3-4s
I don't think you can put i686 software on a K6-2...
I am not saying that is what you have, but maybe.

Did we decide to skip this update and all others with i386 in the title if
you have a Raq3 turned 550?
