Hi there fellow RaQ lovers;

I have one problem. I have purchased a RaQ3 server from eBay and have cleaned it out, replaced the fans, added x2 256MB PC133 (Samsung - identical modules) Memory and a new Maxtor 80GB HDD. Naturally I attempted to reinstall the OS using both the RaQ3 software and the RaQ550 software (burnt the iso files downloaded).

The PC I am using as the sender of information to the RaQ is:
DualCore AMD
LINKSYS LNE100TX Network Card (PCI)
DVDR
x1 SATA HDD w/ NTFS Partition


I have followed the instructions (yes using a crossover cable), and have successfully got my RaQ into "boot from net" mode. I can bootup on the CD using my PC, however once I hit the spacebar to continue reading the information on the my monitor (it displays the requirements, setup process, etc) my PC appears to hang. I have reburnt the image, used x2 different computer and still get the same error.

Does anyone know what is causing this, or what I should do to attempt to solve this problem?

Thanks very much for your suggestions / comments.

Matthew.

Just in case someone is wondering where I downloaded the ISO files, I searched the forums and located them here:

ftp.cobalt.sun.com (ftp://ftp.cobalt.sun.com)

Problem appeared to be a bad NIC (yes all 2 of them). Issue solved, now a new issues arises...
